In thil lection, we are only interested in the numerical. method for lolving LVIP(A,b,C), especially, in designing an iteration method which suits any kinds of closed convu sublet Cin

compact cuney. Motivated by leveral. earlier works, [Man.1971] proposed a fairly general. iterative algorithm. for lolving LCP(A,b1 which is
