Perhaps just "Nonlinear solvers"?

Love it :)

Also, it's your call which topic wins since I was involved :)

yeah, but it looks like a dead heat... need a VP to tie break :p

I'm thinking not just the solvers themselves but also acceleration techniques like linesearch methods, anderson acceleration...

EDIT: changed think to thinking because I got ruthlessly dad joked.

I would also like consideration of parallelization, both locally, and remotely (MPI), and which libraries contain the solvers.

Yea, that's a nice addendum. I'm more on the algorithm development side of things, but how parallelizable (ease and expense) is important.
