“…(With b = 1, it is known as the unit, or canonical, simplex.) Solving a projection problem over such a set described by a linear equality constraint and bounded variables has been considered, for example, in matrix updates in quasi-Newton methods ( [CaM87]), in gradient projection methods for a class of mathematical programs with equilibrium constraints (MPECs) arising in material and shape optimization problems in structural mechanics ( [FJR05]), in subgradient algorithms within right-hand side allocation methods for linear multicommodity network flow problems ([HWC74, KeS77, AHKL80, HKL80, LPS96]), in equilibration procedures for traffic flows ( [DaS69,BeG82,DaN89,LaP92,Lot06]), primal feasibility procedures within Lagrangian dual algorithms for classes of integer programs ( [KLN00]) and in Lagrangian dual methods for quadratic transportation problems, also known as constrained matrix problems ([BaK78, BaK80, OhK80, OhK81, OhK84, CDZ86, Ven89, ShM90, Ven91, NiZ92]); see further below.…”
