Abstract

We show that a necessary condition for stable perturbations in linear and convex programming is valid on an arbitrary region of stability. Using point-to-set mappings, two new regions of stability are identified.

Zusammenfassung

Wir zeigen, daß eine gewisse notwendige Bedingung für die Stabilität von Störungen bei linearen und konvexen Programmen auf beliebigen Stabilitätsbereichen erfüllt ist. Unter Verwendung von mengenwertigen Abbildungen geben wir zwei neue Stabilitätsbereiche an.
