Abstract

In this paper, we present a new trust region algorithm for the system of singular nonlinear equations with the regularized trust region subproblem. The new algorithm preserves the global convergence of the traditional trust region algorithm, and has the quadratic convergence under some suitable conditions. Finally, some numerical results are given.
