Further Application ofH-Differentiability to Generalized Complementarity Problems Based on Generalized Fisher-Burmeister Functions

We study nonsmooth generalized complementarity problems based on the generalized Fisher-Burmeister function and its generalizations, denoted by GCP(f,g) wherefandgareH-differentiable. We describeH-differentials of some GCP functions based on the generalized Fisher-Burmeister function and its generalizations, and their merit functions. Under appropriate conditions on theH-differentials offandg, we show that a local/global minimum of a merit function (or a “stationary point” of a merit function) is coincident with the solution of the given generalized complementarity problem. When specializing GCP(f,g)to the nonlinear complementarity problems, our results not only give new results but also extend/unify various similar results proved forC1, semismooth, and locally Lipschitzian.
