In this paper, we consider a class of mathematical programs with switching constraints (MPSCs) where the objective involves a non-Lipschitz term. Due to the non-Lipschitz continuity of the objective function, the existing constraint qualifications for local Lipschitz MPSCs are invalid to ensure that necessary conditions hold at the local minimizer. Therefore, we propose some MPSC-tailored qualifications which are related to the constraints and the non-Lipschitz term to ensure that local minimizers satisfy the necessary optimality conditions. Moreover, we study the weak, Mordukhovich, Bouligand, strongly (W-, M-, B-, S-) stationay, analyze what qualifications making local minimizers satisfy the (M-, B-, S-) stationay, and discuss the relationship between the given MPSC-tailored qualifications. Finally, an approximation method for solving the non-Lipschitz MPSCs is given, and we show that the accumulation point of the sequence generated by the approximation method satisfies S-stationary under the second-order necessary condition and MPSC Mangasarian-Fromovitz (MF) qualification.

The main aim of this paper is to develop necessary Optimality conditions using Convexifactors for mathematical programs with equilibrium constraints (MPEC). For this purpose a nonsmooth version of the standard Guignard constraint qualification (GCQ) and strong stationarity are introduced in terms of convexifactors for MPEC. It is shown that Strong stationarity is the first order necessary optimality condition under nonsmooth version of the standard GCQ. Finally, notions of asymptotic pseudoconvexity and asymptotic quasiconvexity are used to establish the sufficient optimality conditions for MPEC.

AbstractRecently, a new approach to tackle cardinality-constrained optimization problems based on a continuous reformulation of the problem was proposed. Following this approach, we derive a problem-tailored sequential optimality condition, which is satisfied at every local minimizer without requiring any constraint qualification. We relate this condition to an existing M-type stationary concept by introducing a weak sequential constraint qualification based on a cone-continuity property. Finally, we present two algorithmic applications: We improve existing results for a known regularization method by proving that it generates limit points satisfying the aforementioned optimality conditions even if the subproblems are only solved inexactly. And we show that, under a suitable Kurdyka–Łojasiewicz-type assumption, any limit point of a standard (safeguarded) multiplier penalty method applied directly to the reformulated problem also satisfies the optimality condition. These results are stronger than corresponding ones known for the related class of mathematical programs with complementarity constraints.

A multiobjective optimization problem (MOP) with inequality and equality constraints is considered where the objective and inequality constraint functions are locally Lipschitz and equality constraint functions are differentiable. Burachik and Rizvi [J. Optim. Theory Appl. 155, 477-491 (2012)] gave Guignard and generalized Abadie regularity conditions for a differentiable programming problem and derived Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) type necessary optimality conditions. In this paper, we have defined the nonsmooth versions of Guignard and generalized Abadie regularity conditions given by Burachik and Rizvi and obtained KKT necessary optimality conditions for efficient and weak efficient solutions of (MOP). Further several constraint qualifications sufficient for the above newly defined constraint qualifications are introduced for (MOP) with no equality constraints. Relationships between them are presented and examples are constructed to support the results.
