Abstract: We consider an optimal control problem in which the state is governed by an unilateral obstacle problem (with obstacle from below) and restricted by a pointwise state constraint (from above). In the presence of control constraints, we prove, via regularization of the state constraints, that a system of C-stationarity is necessary for optimality. In the absence of control constraints, we show that local minimizers are even strongly stationary by a careful discussion of the primal first-order conditions of B-stationary type.
