Optimality Conditions in Discrete-Continuous Nonlinear Optimization
Keywords:
Nonlinear optimization, optimality conditions, discrete-continuous variables, mixedinteger nonlinear problems.Abstract
We present necessary and sufficient optimality conditions for discrete-continuous nonlinear optimization problems including mixed-integer nonlinear problems. This theory does not utilize an extension of the Lagrange theory of continuous optimization but it works with certain max functionals for a separation of two sets where one of them is nonconvex. These functionals have the advantage that they can be used for nonconvex optimization problems. This theory avoids getting several Lagrange multipliers per constraint.
