Abstract

In this article we show that, under suitable conditions a quadratic functional attains its minimum on a closed convex cone (in a finite dimensional real Hilbert space) whenever it is bounded below on the cone. As an application, we solve Generalised Linear Complementarity Problems over closed convex cones.
