Abstract: The Douglas--Rachford method is a splitting method frequently employed for finding zeroes of sums of maximally monotone operators. When the operators in question are normal cones operators, the iterated process may be used to solve feasibility problems of the form: Find The success of the method in the context of closed, convex, nonempty sets S1,dots,SN is well-known and understood from a theoretical standpoint. However, its performance in the nonconvex context is less understood yet surprisingly impressive. This was particularly compelling to Jonathan M. Borwein who, intrigued by Elser, Rankenburg, and Thibault's success in applying the method for solving Sudoku Puzzles, began an investigation of his own. We survey the current body of literature on the subject, and we summarize its history. We especially commemorate Professor Borwein's celebrated contributions to the area.
