This paper deals with robust quasi approximate optimal solutions for a nonsmooth semi-infinite optimization problems with uncertainty data. By virtue of the epigraphs of the conjugates of the constraint functions, we first introduce a robust type closed convex constraint qualification. Then, by using the robust type closed convex constraint qualification and robust optimization technique, we obtain some necessary and sufficient optimality conditions for robust quasi approximate optimal solution and exact optimal solution of this nonsmooth uncertain semi-infinite optimization problem. Moreover, the obtained results in this paper are applied to a nonsmooth uncertain optimization problem with cone constraints.

<div class=""abs_img""><img src=""[disp_template_path]/JRM/abst-image/00260005/04.jpg"" width=""300"" />Algorithm flow chart</div> We propose a nonmonotone QP-free infeasible method for inequality-constrained nonlinear optimization problems based on a 3-1 piecewise linear NCP function. This nonmonotone QP-free infeasible method is iterative and is based on nonsmooth reformulation of KKT first-order optimality conditions. It does not use a penalty function or a filter in nonmonotone line searches. This algorithm solves only two systems of linear equations with the same nonsingular coefficient matrix, and is implementable and globally convergent without a linear independence constraint qualification or a strict complementarity condition. Preliminary numerical results are presented. </span>

This paper is a counterpart of Bi et al., 2011. For a locally optimal solution to the nonlinear second-order cone programming (SOCP), specifically, under Robinson’s constraint qualification, we establish the equivalence among the following three conditions: the nonsingularity of Clarke’s Jacobian of Fischer-Burmeister (FB) nonsmooth system for the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions, the strong second-order sufficient condition and constraint nondegeneracy, and the strong regularity of the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker point.

AbstractWe study certain types of composite nonsmooth minimization problems by introducing a general smooth approximation method. Under various conditions we derive bounds on error estimates of the functional values of original objective function at an approximate optimal solution and at the optimal solution. Finally, we obtain second-order necessary optimality conditions for the smooth approximation prob lems using a recently introduced generalized second-order directional derivative.

AbstractIn this paper we study the class of mathematical programs with complementarity constraints MPCC. Under the Linear Independence constraint qualification MPCC-LICQ we state a topological as well as an equivalent algebraic characterization for the strong stability (in the sense of Kojima) of an M-stationary point for MPCC. By allowing perturbations of the describing functions up to second order, the concept of strong stability refers here to the local existence and uniqueness of an M-stationary point for any sufficiently small perturbed problem where this unique solution depends continuously on the perturbation. Finally, some relations to S- and C-stationarity are briefly discussed.

We are concerned with a nonsmooth multiobjective optimization problem with inequality constraints. In order to obtain our main results, we give the definitions of the generalized convex functions based on the generalized directional derivative. Under the above generalized convexity assumptions, sufficient and necessary conditions for optimality are given without the need of a constraint qualification. Then we formulate the dual problem corresponding to the primal problem, and some duality results are obtained without a constraint qualification.

Abstract. In the construction of scales intended for the use in cross-cultural studies, the selection of items needs to be guided not only by traditional criteria of item quality, but has to take information about the measurement invariance of the scale into account. We present an approach to automated item selection which depicts the process as a combinatorial optimization problem and aims at finding a scale which fulfils predefined target criteria – such as measurement invariance across cultures. The search for an optimal solution is performed using an adaptation of the [Formula: see text] Ant System algorithm. The approach is illustrated using an application to item selection for a personality scale assuming measurement invariance across multiple countries.
