This paper presents some globally convergent descent methods for solving systems of nonlinear equations defined by locally Lipschitzian functions. These methods resemble the well-known family of damped Newton and Gauss-Newton methods for solving systems of smooth equations; they generalize some recent Newton-like methods for solving B-differentiable equations which arise from various mathematical programs.
