This setting is applied to a class of mathematical programs with equilibrium constraints in function space from which a new algorithm is derived. Global convergence of the algorithm is demonstrated in function space and the results are then illustrated by numerical experiments.", issn="1436-4646", doi="10.1007/s10107-016-0983-9", url="http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10107-016-0983-9" }
