SNESNEWTONTR#
Newton based nonlinear solver that uses a trust-region strategy
Options Database Keys#
- -snes_tr_deltamin - - trust region parameter, minimum size of trust region
- -snes_tr_deltamax - - trust region parameter, max size of trust region (default: 1e10)
- -snes_tr_delta0 - - trust region parameter, initial size of trust region (default: 0.2)
- -snes_tr_eta1 - - trust region parameter \(eta1 \le eta2\), \(rho > eta1\) breaks out of the inner iteration (default: 0.001)
- -snes_tr_eta2 - - trust region parameter, \(rho \le eta2\) shrinks the trust region (default: 0.25)
- -snes_tr_eta3 - - trust region parameter \(eta3 > eta2\), \(rho \ge eta3\) expands the trust region (default: 0.75)
- -snes_tr_t1 - - trust region parameter, shrinking factor of trust region (default: 0.25)
- -snes_tr_t2 - - trust region parameter, expanding factor of trust region (default: 2.0)
- -snes_tr_norm_type <1,2,infinity> - Type of norm for trust region bounds (default: 2) 
- -snes_tr_fallback_type <newton,cauchy,dogleg> - Solution strategy to test reduction when step is outside of trust region. Can use scaled Newton direction, Cauchy point (Steepest Descent direction) or dogleg method. 
Notes#
The code is largely based on the book [NW06] and supports minimizing objective functions using a quadratic model. Quasi-Newton models are also supported.
Default step computation uses the Newton direction, but a dogleg type update is also supported. The 1- and infinity-norms are also supported when computing the trust region bounds.
