Minimization algorithm in the simulation of the Wall Touching Kink Modes

In this paper the discretized variational principle in the simulation of the Wall Touching Kink Modes (WTKM) is reformulated in terms of independent variables and a corresponding constrained minimization algorithm is elaborated. In a frame of a general formalism is proposed an algoritm for constrained linear minimization adapted to this class of problems. The FORTRAN programme that realize the algorithm is described.
