On Lipschitz semicontinuity properties of variational systems with application to parametric optimization

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: In this paper two properties of recognized interest in variational analysis, known as Lipschitz lower semicontinuity and calmness, are studied with reference to a general class of variational systems, i.e. to solution mappings to parameterized generalized equations. In consideration of the metric nature of such properties, some related sufficient conditions are established, which are expressed via nondegeneracy conditions on derivative-like objects appropriate for a metric space analysis. For certain classes of generalized equations in Asplund spaces, it is shown how such conditions can be formulated by using the Fr'echet coderivative of the field and the derivative of the base. Applications to the stability analysis of parametric constrained optimization problems are proposed.


The present paper is devoted to the study of special semicontinuity properties of mappings implicitly defined by parametrized generalized equations. Solving parametrized generalized equations means to find \(x\) in a given set \(X\) such that \(f(p,x) \in F(p,x)\), where \(F: P \times X \longrightarrow Y\) is a given mapping, \(f: P \times X \longrightarrow Y\) is a given function, and \(P\) is a set of parameters. The author investigates Lipschitz lower semi-continuity and calmness of solution mappings to parametrized generalized equations. Related sufficient conditions are established. Various approaches to expressing the sufficient conditions are presented. The results are applied to the stability analysis of parametric constrained optimization problems.
