Augmenting an algorithm with a monotonic step

22 Views Asked by At

Suppose algorithm $A$ is known to converge to the global maximum from any feasible point.

I believe it is the case that if I augment $A$ with a monotonically increasing step $B$, then the new algorithm $A'$ is guaranteed to converge to the global max as well.

Is this the case? If so, is there a reference I can cite?
