摘要
We present a smooth approximation for the generalized Fischer-Burmeister function where the 2-norm in the FB function is relaxed to a general p-norm (p > 1), and establish some favorable properties for it - for example, the Jacobian consistency. With the smoothing function, we transform the mixed complementarity problem (MCP) into solving a sequence of smooth system of equations, and then trace a smooth path generated by the smoothing algorithm proposed by Chen (2000) [28] to the solution set. In particular, we investigate the influence of p on the numerical performance of the algorithm by solving all MCPLIP test problems, and conclude that the smoothing algorithm with p is an element of (1,2] has better numerical performance than the one with p > 2.
