On LICQ and the uniqueness of Lagrange multipliers

چکیده

Kyparisis proved in 1985 that a strict version of the MangasarianFromovitz constraint qualification (MFCQ) is equivalent to the uniqueness of Lagrange multipliers. However, the definition of this strict version of MFCQ requires the existence of a Lagrange multiplier and is not a constraint qualification (CQ) itself. In this note we show that LICQ is the weakest CQ which ensures (existence and) uniqueness of Lagrange multipliers. We also recall the relations between other CQs and properties of the set of Lagrange multipliers.

On Uniqueness of Lagrange Multipliers in Optimization Problems Subject to Cone Constraints

In this paper we study uniqueness of Lagrange multipliers in optimization problems subject to cone constraints. The main tool in our investigation of this question will be a calculus of dual (polar) cones. We give sufficient and in some cases necessary conditions for uniqueness of Lagrange multipliers in general Banach spaces. General results are then applied to two particular examples of the s...

European option pricing of fractional Black-Scholes model with new Lagrange multipliers

In this paper, a new identification of the Lagrange multipliers by means of the Sumudu transform, is employed to  btain a quick and accurate solution to the fractional Black-Scholes equation with the initial condition for a European option pricing problem. Undoubtedly this model is the most well known model for pricing financial derivatives. The fractional derivatives is described in Caputo sen...

Interpretation of Lagrange multipliers in nonlinear pricing problem

We present well-known interpretations of Lagrange multipliers in physical and economic applications, and introduce a new interpretation in nonlinear pricing problem. The multipliers can be interpreted as a network of directed flows between the buyer types. The structure of the digraph and the fact that the multipliers usually have distinctive values can be used in solving the optimization probl...

Lagrange Multipliers with Optimal Sensitivity Properties in Constrained Optimization

We consider optimization problems with inequality and abstract set constraints, and we derive sensitivity properties of Lagrange multipliers under very weak conditions. In particular, we do not assume uniqueness of a Lagrange multiplier or continuity of the perturbation function. We show that the Lagrange multiplier of minimum norm defines the optimal rate of improvement of the cost per unit co...

Combination of Genetic Algorithm With Lagrange Multipliers For Lot-Size Determination in Capacity Constrained Multi-Period, Multi-Product and Multi-Stage Problems

 Abstract : In this paper a meta-heuristic approach has been presented to solve lot-size determination problems in a complex multi-stage production planning problems with production capacity constraint. This type of problems has multiple products with sequential production processes which are manufactured in different periods to meet customer’s demand. By determining the decision variables, mac...
