An inexact Newton-like conditional gradient method for constrained nonlinear systems

In this paper, we propose an inexact Newton-like conditional gradient method for solving constrained systems of nonlinear equations. The local convergence of the new method as well as results on its rate are established by using a general majorant condition. Two applications of such condition are provided: one is for functions whose derivatives satisfy a Holder-like condition and the other is for functions that satisfy a Smale condition, which includes a substantial class of analytic functions. Some preliminary numerical experiments illustrating the applicability of the proposed method are also presented. (C) 2018 IMACS. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
