At each iteration of the algorithm, a quadratic programming subproblem, which is always feasible by introducing a slack variable, is solved to obtain a search direction. The steplength along this direction is computed by employing the 1∞ exact penalty function through Armijo-type line search scheme. The algorithm is proved to be convergent globally under mild conditions.展开更多

Double average options were discussed as examples. The problem is a parabolic one on a finite domain whose equation degenerates into ordinary differential equations on the boundaries. A fully discrete scheme was established by using the Legendre spectral method in space and the Crank-Nicolson finite difference scheme in time. The stability and convergence of the scheme were analyzed. Numerical results show that the method can keep the spectral accuracy in space for such degenerate problems.展开更多

We first consider the Jacobi spectral method and the generalized Jacobi spectral method for various problems, including degenerated and singular differential equations. Then we present the generalized Jacobi quasi-orthogonal approximation and its applica- tions to the spectral element methods for high order problems with mixed inhomogeneous boundary conditions. We also discuss the related spectral methods for non-rectangular domains and the irrational spectral methods for unbounded domains. Next, we consider the Hermite spectral method and the generalized Hermite spec- tral method with their applications. Finally, we consider the Laguerre spectral method and the generalized Laguerre spectral method for many problems defined on unbounded domains. We also present the generalized Laguerre quasi-orthogonal approximation and its applications to certain problems of non-standard type and exterior problems.展开更多

文摘An efficient SQP algorithm for solving nonlinear degenerate problems is proposed in the paper. At each iteration of the algorithm, a quadratic programming subproblem, which is always feasible by introducing a slack variable, is solved to obtain a search direction. The steplength along this direction is computed by employing the 1∞ exact penalty function through Armijo-type line search scheme. The algorithm is proved to be convergent globally under mild conditions.
