Hybrid Runge-Kutta and quasi-Newton methods for unconstrained nonlinear optimization

Finding a local minimizer in unconstrained nonlinear optimization and a fixed point of a gradient system of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are two closely related problems. Quasi-Newton algorithms are widely used in unconstrained nonlinear optimization while Runge-Kutta methods are widely us...
