Hybrid Newton-type method for a class of semismooth equations

In this paper, we present a hybrid method for the solution of a class of composite semismooth equations encountered frequently in applications. The method is obtained by combining a generalized finite difference Newton method to a inexpensive direct search method. We prove that, under standard assumptions, the method is globally convergent with a local rate of convergence which is superlinear or quadratic. We also report several numerical results obtained applying the method to suitable reformulations of well known nonlinear complementarity problems.
