On the Use of Quasi-Newton Methods for the Minimization of Convex Quadratic Splines
… definite secant update method of Broyden, Fletcher, Goldfarb, and Shanno (BFGS) is investigated as a tool to solve the unconstrained minimization problem. It is shown that there is a linear convergence rate and, for nondegenerate problems, the process terminates in a finite number of …

Functorial quasi-uniformities over partially ordered spaces
… study of these spaces is in the book by P. Fletcher and W.F. Lindgren [1982]. In this thesis we consider functorial quasi-uniformities over (partially) ordered spaces. The functorial methods which we use were developed by Brummer [1971, 1977, 1979, 1982] and Brummer and Hager [1984, 1987] in …
