    Notes: Abstract Interval Newton methods in conjunction with generalized bisection are important elemetns of algorithms which find theglobal optimum within a specified box X ⊂ ℝn of an objective function ϕ whose critical points are solutions to the system of nonlinear equationsF(X)=0with mathematical certainty, even in finite presision arithmetic. The overall efficiency of such a scheme depends on the power of the interval Newton method to reduce the widths of the coordinate intervals of the box. Thus, though the generalized bisection method will still converge in a box which contains a critical point at which the Jacobian matrix is singular, the process is much more costly in that case. Here, we propose modifications which make the generalized bisection method isolate singular solutions more efficiently. These modifications are based on an observation about the verification property of interval Newton methods and on techniques for detecting the singularity and removing the region containing it. The modifications assume no special structure forF. Additionally, one of the observations should also make the algorithm more efficient when finding nonsingular solutions. We present results of computational experiments.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die meisten gebräuchlichen Intervallmethoden für nicht-lineare algebraische Systeme beruhen auf Annahmen über die Stetigkeit der Ableitungen, ebenso große Teile der Theorie der Intervall-Newton-Verfahren. Für effiziente Einschließungen des Wertebereichs ist jedoch die Stetigkeit der Ableitungen nicht notwendig, im Fall von Sprüngen der ersten Ableitungen können sogar für Intervall-Newton-Verfahren geeignete Einschließungen gewonnen werden. Formuliert als unrestringierte nichtlineare Optimierungsprobleme können demnach minimax- oderl 1-Approximationen leicht behandelt werden. In der vorliegenden Arbeit geben wir Intervall-Auswertungen und Rechenregeln für die Funktionen |x|, max{x, y} und eine allgemeine Sprungfunktion χ(s, x, y) an. Diese Funktionen sind in eine Umgebung zur automatischen Differentiation und Codelisten-Interpretation eingearbeitet. Ergebnisse werden vorgestellt für nichtlineare Systeme mit max und |o| und für minimax- undl 1-Optimierungsaufgaben.
    Notes: Abstract Most interval branch and bound methods for nonlinear algebraic systems have to date been based on implicit underlying assumptions of continuity of derivatives. In particular, much of the theory of interval Newton methods is based on this assumption. However, derivative continuity is not necessary to obtain effective bounds on the range of such functions. Furthermore, if the first derivatives just have jump discontinuities, then interval extensions can be obtained that are appropriate for interval Newton methods. Thus, problems such as minimax orl 1-approximations can be solved simply, formulated as unconstrained nonlinear optimization problems. In this paper, interval extensions and computation rules are given for the unary operation |x|, the binary operation max{x, y} and a more general “jump” function χ(s,x,y). These functions are incorporated into an automatic differentiation and code list interpretation environment. Experimental results are given for nonlinear systems involving max and |o| and for minimax andl 1-optimization problems.

    Notes: Abstract In this paper, we propose modifications to a prototypical branch and bound algorithm for nonlinear optimization so that the algorithm efficiently handles constrained problems with constant bound constraints. The modifications involve treating subregions of the boundary identically to interior regions during the branch and bound process, but using reduced gradients for the interval Newton method. The modifications also involve preconditioners for the interval Gauss-Seidel method which are optimal in the sense that their application selectively gives a coordinate bound of minimum width, a coordinate bound whose left endpoint is as large as possible, or a coordinate bound whose right endpoint is as small as possible. We give experimental results on a selection of problems with different properties.

    Notes: Abstract We consider branch and bound methods for enclosing all unconstrained global minimizers of a nonconvex nonlinear twice-continuously differentiable objective function. In particular, we consider bounds obtained with interval arithmetic, with the “midpoint test,” but no acceleration procedures. Unless the lower bound is exact, the algorithm without acceleration procedures in general gives an undesirable cluster of boxes around each minimizer. In a previous paper, we analyzed this problem for univariate objective functions. In this paper, we generalize that analysis to multi-dimensional objective functions. As in the univariate case, the results show that the problem is highly related to the behavior of the objective function near the global minimizers and to the order of the corresponding interval extension.
