Smooth Exact Penalty and Barrier Functions for Nonsmooth Optimization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
For constrained nonsmooth optimization problems, continuously differentiable penalty functions and barrier functions are given. They are proved exact in the sense that under some nondegeneracy assumption, local optimizers of a nonlinear program are also ...

Extended lagrange and penalty functions in optimization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We consider nonlinear Lagrange and penalty functions for optimization problems with a single constraint. The convolution of the objective function and the constraint is accomplished by an increasing positively homogeneous of the first degree function. We

Differential inclusions and exact penalties

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2015
The article considers differential inclusion with a given set-valued mapping and initial point. It is required to find a solution of this differential inclusion that minimizes an integral functional.

Exactness Conditions for a Convex Differentiable Exterior Penalty for Linear Programming [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Sufficient conditions are given for a classical dual exterior penalty function of a linear program to be independent of its penalty parameter. This ensures that an exact solution to the primal linear program can be obtained by minimizing the dual ...

Globally Convergent Exact Penalty Algorithms for Constrained Optimization [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
n this paper we define two classes of algorithms for the solution of constrained problems. The first class is based on a continuously differentiable exact penalty function, with the additional inclusion of a barrier term.

Strictly increasing positively homogeneous functions with application to exact penalization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We study a nonlinear exact penalization for optimization problems with a single constraint. The penalty function is constructed as a convolution of the objective function and the constraint by means of increasing positively homogeneous (IPH) functions ...

An exact penalty approach for mathematical programs with equilibrium constraints. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This paper presents an exact penalty approach to solve the mathematical problems with equilibrium constraints (MPECs). This work is based on the smoothing functions introduced in [3] but it does not need any complicate updating rule for the ...
