Modified regularity conditions for nonlinear programming problems over mixed cone domains

Abstract

In earlier results by Sposito and David, Kuhn—Tucker duality was established over nondegenerate cone domains (not necessarily polyhedral) without differentiability under a certain natural modification of the Slater condition, in addition to the convexity of a certain auxiliary set. This note extends Kuhn—Tucker duality to optimization problems with both nondegenerate and degenerate cone domains. Moreover, under a different condition than presented in earlier results by the author, this note develops Kuhn—Tucker duality for a certain class of nonlinear problems with linear constraints and an arbitrary objective function.
