In order to deal with large problems, a pair of trust region subproblems in horizontal and vertical subspaces is used to replace the general full trust region subproblem. The horizontal trust region subproblem in the algorithm is only a general trust region subproblem while the vertical trust region subproblem is defined by a parameter size of the vertical direction subject only to an ellipsoidal constraint. Both trust region strategy and line search technique at each iteration switch to obtaining a backtracking step generated by the two trust region subproblems. By adopting the l 1 penalty function as the merit function, the global convergence and fast local convergence rate of the proposed algorithm are established under some reasonable conditions. A nonmonotonic criterion and the second order correction step are used to overcome Maratos effect and speed up the convergence progress in some ill-conditioned cases.
