Abstract

In this paper, we will study optimality conditions of semi-infinite programs and generalized semi-infinite programs by employing lower order exact penalty functions and the condition that the generalized second-order directional derivative of the constraint function at the candidate point along any feasible direction for the linearized constraint set is non-positive. We consider three types of penalty functions for semi-infinite program and investigate the relationship among the exactness of these penalty functions. We employ lower order integral exact penalty functions and the second-order generalized derivative of the constraint function to establish optimality conditions for semi-infinite programs. We adopt the exact penalty function technique in terms of a classical augmented Lagrangian function for the lower-level problems of generalized semi-infinite programs to transform them into standard semi-infinite programs and then apply our results for semi-infinite programs to derive the optimality condition for generalized semi-infinite programs. We will give various examples to illustrate our results and assumptions.
