Abstract

The aim of this paper is to propose a new underestimator for solving univariate global optimization problems, which is better than the underestimator used in the classical αBB method [1], and the quadratic underestimator developed in [4]. We can propose an efficient algorithm based on Branch and Bound techniques and an efficient w-subdivision for branching. A convex/concave test is added to accelerate the convergence of the algorithm.
