On a decomposition method for nonconvex global optimization

From MaRDI portal
Publication:2463828





The author presents a rigorous framework for convergence results for the branch and bound decomposition method in nonconvex global optimization. The essential assumptions needed to prove convergence for the branch and bound decomposition scheme with Lagrangian bounds are discussed in detail. This discussion leads, among other results, to a counter example to some similar statements in the recent literature. Special attention is given to partly convex problems as well as partly monotonic and monotonic/linear problems.
