Abstract

We consider the expected residual minimization (ERM) formulation of stochastic linear complementarity problem (SLCP). By employing the Barzilai–Borwein (BB) stepsize and active set strategy, we present a BB type method for solving the ERM problem. The global convergence of the proposed method is proved under mild conditions. Preliminary numerical results show that the method is promising.
