Slice convergence: stabilité et optimisation dans les espaces non réflexifs

Khalid El Hajioui, Driss Mentagui (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Il est démontré par Mentagui [ESAIM: COCV9 (2003) 297-315] que, dans le cas des espaces de Banach généraux, la convergence d'Attouch-Wets est stable par une classe d'opérations classiques de l'analyse convexe, lorsque les limites des suites d'ensembles et de fonctions satisfont certaines conditions de qualification naturelles. Ceci tombe en défaut avec la slice convergence. Dans cet article, nous établissons des conditions de qualification uniformes assurant la stabilité de la slice convergence...

Some new existence, sensitivity and stability results for the nonlinear complementarity problem

Rubén López (2008)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

In this work we study the nonlinear complementarity problem on the nonnegative orthant. This is done by approximating its equivalent variational-inequality-formulation by a sequence of variational inequalities with nested compact domains. This approach yields simultaneously existence, sensitivity, and stability results. By introducing new classes of functions and a suitable metric for performing the approximation, we provide bounds for the asymptotic set of the solution set and coercive existence...

Stability of stochastic optimization problems - nonmeasurable case

Petr Lachout (2008)

Kybernetika

This paper deals with stability of stochastic optimization problems in a general setting. Objective function is defined on a metric space and depends on a probability measure which is unknown, but, estimated from empirical observations. We try to derive stability results without precise knowledge of problem structure and without measurability assumption. Moreover, ε -optimal solutions are considered. The setup is illustrated on consistency of a ε - M -estimator in linear regression model.

Stability of Supporting and Exposing Elements of Convex Sets in Banach Spaces

Azé, D., Lucchetti, R. (1996)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

* This work was supported by the CNR while the author was visiting the University of Milan.To a convex set in a Banach space we associate a convex function (the separating function), whose subdifferential provides useful information on the nature of the supporting and exposed points of the convex set. These points are shown to be also connected to the solutions of a minimization problem involving the separating function. We investigate some relevant properties of this function and of its conjugate...

Stochastic geometric programming with an application

Jitka Dupačová (2010)

Kybernetika

In applications of geometric programming, some coefficients and/or exponents may not be precisely known. Stochastic geometric programming can be used to deal with such situations. In this paper, we shall indicate which stochastic programming approaches and which structural and distributional assumptions do not destroy the favorable structure of geometric programs. The already recognized possibilities are extended for a tracking model and stochastic sensitivity analysis is presented in the context...

Strong-weak Stackelberg Problems in Finite Dimensional Spaces

Aboussoror, Abdelmalek, Loridan, Pierre (1995)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

We are concerned with two-level optimization problems called strongweak Stackelberg problems, generalizing the class of Stackelberg problems in the strong and weak sense. In order to handle the fact that the considered two-level optimization problems may fail to have a solution under mild assumptions, we consider a regularization involving ε-approximate optimal solutions in the lower level problems. We prove the existence of optimal solutions for such regularized problems and present some approximation...

The Lazy Travelling Salesman Problem in 2

Paz Polak, Gershon Wolansky (2007)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We study a parameter (σ) dependent relaxation of the Travelling Salesman Problem on  2 . The relaxed problem is reduced to the Travelling Salesman Problem as σ 0. For increasing σ it is also an ordered clustering algorithm for a set of points in 2 . A dual formulation is introduced, which reduces the problem to a convex optimization, provided the minimizer is in the domain of convexity of the relaxed functional. It is shown that this last condition is generically satisfied, provided σ is large enough. ...
