Two subgradient extragradient methods based on the golden ratio technique for solving variational inequality problems.

We propose and study two new methods based on the golden ratio technique for approximating solutions to variational inequality problems in Hilbert space. The first method combines the golden ratio technique with the subgradient extragradient method. In the second method, we incorporate the alternating golden ratio technique into the subgradient extragradient method. Both methods use self-adaptive step sizes which are allowed to increase during the execution of the algorithms, thus limiting the dependence of our methods on the starting point of the scaling parameter. We prove that under appropriate conditions, the resulting methods converge either weakly or R-linearly to a solution of the variational inequality problem associated with a pseudomonotone operator. In order to show the numerical advantage of our methods, we first present the results of several pertinent numerical experiments and then compare the performance of our proposed methods with that of some existing methods which can be found in the literature.
