STRONGLY REGULAR NONSMOOTH GENERALIZED EQUATIONS (REVISED)

This note suggests the implicit function theorem for generalized equations, unifying Robinson’s theorem for strongly regular generalized equations and Clarke’s implicit function theorem for equations with Lipschitz-continuous mappings.

DIRECT SEARCH METHODS OVER LIPSCHITZ MANIFOLDS

We extend direct search methods to optimization problems that include equality constraints given by Lipschitz functions. The equality constraints are assumed to implicitly define a Lipschitz manifold. Numerically implementing the inverse (implicit) function theorem allows us to define a new problem on the tangent spaces of the manifold. We can then use a direct search … Read more
