TAOLMVM#
Limited Memory Variable Metric method is a quasi-Newton optimization solver for unconstrained minimization. It solves the Newton step Hkdk = - gk using an approximation Bk in place of Hk, where Bk is composed using the BFGS update formula. A More-Thuente line search is then used to computed the steplength in the dk direction
