Variational Analysis in Bilevel Programming
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper is devoted to applications of advanced tools of modern variational analysis and generalized differentiation to problems of optimistic bilevel programming. In this way, new necessary optimality conditions are derived for two major classes of bilevel programs: those with partially convex and with fully convex lower-level problems. We provide detailed discussions of the results obtained and their relationships with known results in this area.

متن کاملExact Penalization and Necessary Optimality Conditions for Generalized Bilevel Programming Problems
The generalized bilevel programming problem (GBLP) is a bilevel mathematical program where the lower level is a variational inequality. In this paper we prove that if the objective function of a GBLP is uniformly Lipschitz continuous in the lower level decision variable with respect to the upper level decision variable, then using certain uniform parametric error bounds as penalty functions giv...
متن کاملA New Method For Solving Linear Bilevel Multi-Objective Multi-Follower Programming Problem
Linear bilevel programming is a decision making problem with a two-level decentralized organization. The leader is in the upper level and the follower, in the lower level. This study addresses linear bilevel multi-objective multi-follower programming (LB-MOMFP) problem, a special case of linear bilevel programming problems with one leader and multiple followers where each decision maker has sev...
متن کاملNecessary Optimality Conditions in Pessimistic Bilevel Programming Necessary Optimality Conditions in Pessimistic Bilevel Programming
This paper is devoted to the so-called pessimistic version of bilevel programming programs. Minimization problems of this type are challenging to handle partly because the corresponding value functions are often merely upper (while not lower) semicontinuous. Employing advanced tools of variational analysis and generalized differentiation, we provide rather general frameworks ensuring the Lipsch...
متن کاملA trust region algorithm for nonlinear bilevel programming
We propose to solve generalized bilevel programs by a trust region approach where the “model” takes the form of a bilevel program involving a linear program at the upper level and a linear variational inequality at the lower level. By coupling the concepts of trust region and linesearch in a novel way, we obtain an implementable algorithm that converges to a strong stationary point of the origi...
