V. A. Zhdanov

M. V. Lomonosov Moscow State University

Abstract: The problem of minimizing a function of several variables on a parallelepiped is considered. A method of componentwise descent, not requiring the computation of derivatives of the function being minimized, is suggested for its solution. Its convergence for smooth convex functions is proved.
