Description for Lagrange-type Functions in Constrained Non-convex Optimization
Hardback. Provides an examination of Lagrange-type functions and augmented Lagrangians. This book examines weak duality, zero duality gap property and the existence of an exact penalty parameter. By applying Lagrange-type functions, a zero duality gap property for nonconvex constrained optimization problems is established under a coercive condition. Series: Applied Optimization. Num Pages: 300 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBU. Category: (G) General (US: Trade); (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 234 x 156 x 17. Weight in Grams: 603.
Lagrange and penalty function methods provide a powerful approach, both as a theoretical tool and a computational vehicle, for the study of constrained optimization problems. However, for a nonconvex constrained optimization problem, the classical Lagrange primal-dual method may fail to find a mini mum as a zero duality gap is not always guaranteed. A large penalty parameter is, in general, required for classical quadratic penalty functions in order that minima of penalty problems are a good approximation to those of the original constrained optimization problems. It is well-known that penaity functions with too large parameters cause an obstacle for numerical ... Read more
