Abstract

In this paper, we investigate global convergence properties of the inexact nonsmooth Newton method for solving the system of absolute value equations. Global Q-linear convergence is established under suitable assumptions. Moreover, we present some numerical experiments designed to investigate the practical viability of the proposed scheme.
