This paper deals with generalized semi-infinite optimization problems where the (infinite) index set of inequality constraints depends on the state variables and all involved functions are twice continuously differentiable. Necessary and sufficient second order optimality conditions for such problems are derived under assumptions which imply that the corresponding optimal value function is seco...

Generalized semi-infinite optimization problems (GSIP) are considered. It is investigated how the numerical methods for standard semi-infinite programming (SIP) can be extended to GSIP. Newton methods can be extended immediately. For discretization methods the situation is more complicated. These difficulties are discussed and convergence results for a discretizationand an exchange method are d...

In this paper, we develop the sufficient conditions for the existence of local and global saddle points of two classes of augmented Lagrangian functions for nonconvex optimization problem with both equality and inequality constraints, which improve the corresponding results in available papers. The main feature of our sufficient condition for the existence of global saddle points is that we do ...
