Computable general equilibrium models and other types of variational inequalities play a key role in computational economics. This paper describes the design and implementation of a pathsearch-damped Newton method for solving such problems. Our algorithm improves on the typical Newton method (which generates and solves a sequence of LCP's) in both speed and robustness. The underlying complement...
