- Using a standard first-order optimality condition for nonsmooth optimization prob-
lems, a general framework for a descent method is developed. 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.
