Using exact penalties to derive a new equation reformulation of KKT systems associated to variational inequalities
In this paper, we present a new reformulation of the KKT system associated to a variational inequality as a semismooth equation. The reformulation is derived from the concept of differentiable exact penalties for nonlinear programming. The best results are presented for nonlinear complementarity problems, where simple, verifiable, conditions ensure that the penalty is exact. We … Read more
