On the complexity of an augmented Lagrangian method for nonconvex optimization [PDF]
Abstract In this paper we study the worst-case complexity of an inexact augmented Lagrangian method for nonconvex constrained problems. Assuming that the penalty parameters are bounded we prove a complexity bound of $\mathcal{O}(|\log (\epsilon )|)$ outer iterations for the referred algorithm to generate an $\epsilon$-approximate KKT ...

Generalized Quadratic Augmented Lagrangian Methods with Nonmonotone Penalty Parameters
For nonconvex optimization problem with both equality and inequality constraints, we introduce a new augmented Lagrangian function and propose the corresponding multiplier algorithm. New iterative strategy on penalty parameter is presented.

Optimiza - un paquete computacional para la optimización de problemas no lineales
Our goal is to build a software able to solve problems in non linear optimization. A central point is selection of the algorithm, which is based on Augmented Lagrangian Method combined with quasi-Newton methods (BFGS, L-BFGS).
