where p

is a member of ∂h(x
k−1
). Therefore,
0 ∈ ∂f(x

)+∂h(x
k
) − p
k−1
. (4.20)
We assume that this equation can be solved and that there are u
k
∈ ∂f(x
k
)
and v
k
∈ ∂h(x
k
)sothat
v
k
= p
k−1
− u
k
. (4.21)
We then define p
k
= v
k
,sothat
G

Therefore, the SUMMA condition holds and the sequence {f(x

verges to f(ˆx).
4.7 The IPA
The IPA is a modification of the PMA designed to overcome some of
the computational obstacles encountered in the PMA [55, 63]. At the kth
step of the PMA we must solve the equation
∇f(x

)+∇h(x
k
)=∇h(x
k−1
) (4.23)
for x

, where, ...
