Weak Sharp Minima for Semi-infinite Optimization Problems with Applications
Xi Yin Zheng, Xiaoqi Yang · SIAM Journal on Optimization · 2007
We study local weak sharp minima and sharp minima for smooth semi-infinite optimization problems SIP. We provide several dual and primal characterizations for a point to be a sharp minimum or a weak sharp minimum of SIP. As applications, we present several sufficient and necessary conditions of calmness for infinitely many smooth inequalities. In particular, we improve some calmness results in [R. Henrion and J. Outrata, Math. Program., 104 (2005), pp. 437–464].
