Title:   Algorithms for Variational Inequalities and Solvers for Quadratic Programming
Speaker: Aswin Kannan, Penn. State University
Time:    3pm, 6/12/2013 (Friday)
Venue:   LCC 11, Lecture Hall Complex

Abstract: This talk will focus on three different classes of problems arising in generic optimization 
settings. In the first part of the talk, we consider a class of monotone variational inequality problems.
