MPCC: Critical Point Theory

SIAM Journal on Optimization, 2009
We study mathematical programs with complementarity constraints (MPCC) from a topological point of view. Special focus will be on C-stationary points. Under the linear independence constraint qualification (LICQ) we derive an equivariant Morse lemma at nondegenerate C-stationary points.

Critical Point Theory

2019
Critical point theory deals with variational problems and so it can be argued that it is as old as calculus. Nevertheless, in its modern form, critical point theory has its roots in the so-called “Dirichlet principle”.

Nonsmooth Critical Point Theory

1999
The aim of this chapter is to present general results, many of them belonging to the authors, that can be applied to locally Lipschitz functionals, possibly invariant under a compact Lie group of linear isometries. The nonsmooth critical point theory in the locally Lipschitz case originates in the work of Chang [4].

Critical Point Theory

1993
In the study of nonminimum critical points, a basic method is the so-called minimax principle. In this chapter we study the connections between Morse theory and a variety of concrete versions of the minimax principle. We point out that the minimax principle for relative homology classes is particularly suitable for Morse theory because certain critical

A critical point theory for nonsmooth functional

Annali di Matematica Pura ed Applicata, 1994
In this paper a suitable definition of ``norm of differential'' and the notion of critical points are introduced for continuous functionals on metric spaces. By means of this new definition, the classical results of Lyusternik-Schnirelmann on critical point theory for smooth functionals on manifolds are extended to continuous functionals on complete ...

Subdifferential Calculus and Nonsmooth Critical Point Theory

SIAM Journal on Optimization, 2000
Summary: A general critical point theory for continuous functions defined on metric spaces has been recently developed. A new subdifferential, related to that theory, is introduced. In particular, results on the subdifferential of a sum are proved. An example of application to PDEs is sketched.

Comprehensive theory of simple fluids, critical point included

Physical Review Letters, 1989
We present a comprehensive theory of fluids which has the typical accuracy of a good liquid-state theory in the dense regime but in addition has a genuine nonclassical critical behavior. The theory is based on the hierarchical reference theory of fluids decoupled with an approximation inspired by the optimized random-phase approximation.

Critical Point Theory

1999
Many nonlinear problems can be reduced to the form Many nonlinear problems can be reduced to the form $$G'(u) = 0,$$ (1.1.1) where G is a C1-functional on a Banach space E. In this case the problems can be attacked by specialized, important techniques which can produce results where other methods fail.
