Abstract
In this paper we suggest a new version of Gauss-Newton method for solving a system of nonlinear equations, which combines the idea of a sharp merit function with the idea of a quadratic regularization. For this scheme we prove general convergence results and, under a natural non-degeneracy assumption, a local quadratic convergence. We analyze the behavior of this scheme on some natural problem class, for which we get global and local worst-case complexity bounds. The implementation of each step of the scheme can be done by a standard convex optimization technique.
