Abstract

We present a new inexact nonsmooth Newton method for the solution of convex minimization problems with piecewise smooth, pointwise nonlinearities. The algorithm consists of a nonlinear smoothing step on the fine level and a linear coarse correction. Suitable postprocessing guarantees global convergence even in the case of a single multigrid step for each linear subproblem. Numerical examples show that the overall efficiency is comparable to multigrid for similar linear problems.
