First- and Second-order Optimality Conditions for Mathematical Programs with Vanishing Constraints
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider a special class of optimization problems that we call Mathematical Programs with Vanishing Constraints, MPVC for short, which serves as a unified framework for several applications in structural and topology optimization. Since an MPVC most often violates stronger standard constraint qualification, first-order necessary optimality conditions, weaker than the standard KKT-conditions, were recently investigated in depth. This paper enlarges the set of optimality criteria by stating first-order sufficient and second-order necessary and sufficient optimality conditions for MPVCs.

Mathematical Programs with Vanishing Constraints: Optimality Conditions, Sensitivity, and a Relaxation Method
We consider a class of optimization problems with switch-off/switch-on constraints, which is a relatively new problem model. The specificity of this model is that it contains constraints that are being imposed (switched on) at some points of the feasible region, while being disregarded (switched off) at other points. This seems to be a potentially useful modeling paradigm, that has been shown t...
متن کاملOptimality Conditions for Disjunctive Programs Based on Generalized Differentiation with Application to Mathematical Programs with Equilibrium Constraints
We consider optimization problems with a disjunctive structure of the constraints. Prominent examples of such problems are mathematical programs with equilibrium constraints or vanishing constraints. Based on the concepts of directional subregularity and their characterization by means of objects from generalized differentiation, we obtain the new stationarity concept of extended M-stationarity...
متن کاملSecond-Order Optimality Conditions for Mathematical Programs with Equilibrium Constraints
We study second-order optimality conditions for mathematical programs with equilibrium constraints (MPEC). Firstly, we improve some second-order optimality conditions for standard nonlinear programming problems using some newly discovered constraint qualifications in the literature, and apply them to MPEC. Then, we introduce some MPEC variants of these new constraint qualifications, which are a...
متن کاملFirst-Order Optimality Conditions for Mathematical Programs with Second-Order Cone Complementarity Constraints
In this paper we consider a mathematical program with second-order cone complementarity constraints (SOCMPCC). The SOCMPCC generalizes the mathematical program with complementarity constraints (MPCC) in replacing the set of nonnegative reals by a second-order cone. We show that if the SOCMPCC is considered as an optimization problem with convex cone constraints, then Robinson’s constraint quali...
متن کاملFirst-Order Optimality Conditions for Elliptic Mathematical Programs with Equilibrium Constraints via Variational Analysis
Mathematical programs in which the constraint set is partially defined by the solutions of an elliptic variational inequality, so-called “elliptic MPECs”, are formulated in reflexive Banach spaces. With the goal of deriving explicit first order optimality conditions amenable to the development of numerical procedures, variational analytic concepts are both applied and further developed. The pap...
