Abstract: The extended linear complementarity problem(denoted by ELCP) can be reformulated as the solution of a nonsmooth system of equations. By the symmetrically perturbed CHKS smoothing function, the ELCP is approximated by a family of parameterized smooth equations. A one-step smoothing Newton method is designed for solving the ELCP. The proposed algorithm is proved to be globally convergent under suitable assumptions.

Key words: extended linear complementarity problem, smoothing Newton method, global convergence
