Abstract

Based on an eigenvalue study, the sufficient descent condition of an extended class of the Hager-Zhang nonlinear conjugate gradient methods is established. As an interesting result, it is shown that the search directions of the CG_Descent algorithm satisfy the sufficient descent condition \(d_k^Tg_k<-\frac{7}{8}||g_k||^2\).
