An inexact secant algorithm for large scale nonlinear systems of equalities and inequalities

In this paper, an inexact secant algorithm in association with nonmonotone technique and filter is proposed for solving the large scale nonlinear systems of equalities and inequalities. The systems are transformed into a continuous constrained optimization solved by inexact secant algorithm. Global convergence of the proposed algorithm is established under the reasonable conditions. Numerical results validate the effectiveness of our approach.
