Minimization interchange theorem on posets

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Interchange theorems between minimization and integration are useful in optimization, especially in optimal control and in stochastic optimization. In this article, we establish a generalized minimization interchange theorem, where integration is replaced by a monotone mapping between posets (partially ordered sets). As an application, we recover, and slightly extend, classical results from the literature, and we tackle the case of the Choquet integral. Our result provides insight on the mechanisms behind existing interchange results.


The authors establish a generalized minimization interchange theorem between minimization and integration, where integration is replaced by a monotone mapping between posets (patially ordered sets). As an application, they recover, and slightly extend, classical results from the literature, and they tackle the question of interchange between minimization and different integrations (extended Lebesgue, outer and Choquet integrals). Further, the authors provide the background on extended Lebesgue and outer integrals in Appendix A.
