An inexact alternating direction method with SQP regularization for the structured variational inequalities

In this paper, we propose an inexact alternating direction method with square quadratic proximal (SQP) regularization for the structured variational inequalities. The predictor is obtained via solving SQP system approximately under signicantly relaxed accuracy criterion and the new iterate is computed directly by an explicit formula derived from the original SQP method. Under appropriate conditions, the global convergence of the proposed method is proved. We show the O(1=t) convergence rate for the inexact SQP alternating direction method. We also reported some numerical results to illustrate the effciency of the proposed method.
