“…More applications of the problem (1) in economic equilibrium analysis, chemical equilibrium systems, compressive sensing, and control theory can be found in [14,17,21] and in the references therein. Some iterative methods for solving these problems include Newton and quasi-Newton methods [3,12,15,18], the Gauss-Newton methods [7,22], the Levenberg-Marquardt methods [16,19,23], the derivative-free methods [9,13,25,29], the subspace methods [24], and the tensor methods [26]. The most popular schemes for solving (1) are based on successive linearization [3], where the search direction d k is obtained by solving the following linear equation:…”
