Abstract

The extended linear complementarity problem (denoted by XLCP), of which the linear and horizontal linear complementarity problems are two special cases, can be reformulated as the solution of a nonsmooth system of equations. By the symmetrically perturbed smoothing Fischer-Burmeister function, the XLCP is approximated by a family of parameterized smoothness optimization problems. Asmoothing damped Gauss-Newton method is designed for solving the XLCP. The proposed algorithm is proved to be convergent globally under suitable assumptions. Some numerical results are reported in the paper
