Title:  Minimizing a quadratic over a sphere

Abstract:  I am going to present Dr. Hager's paper 'Minimizing a quadratic
over a sphere'. The sequential subspace method(SSM), is developed
for the problem of minimizing a quadratic over a sphere. In our scheme,
the quadratic is minimized over a subspace which is adjusted in successive
iterations to ensure convergence to an optimum. When a sequential
quadratic programming iterate is included in the subspace, convegence is
locally quadratic.
