Chapter 1 Optimality Conditions: Unconstrained Optimization

One can approximate this problem by the unconstrained optimization problem min{f0(x) + αdist(f(x)C) : x ∈ Rn} This is a convex composite optimization problem where h(η y) = η + αdist(yC) is a convex function The function f0(x)+αdist(f(x)C) is called an exact penalty function for the problem min{f0(x) : F (x) ∈ C}

What is the difference between necessary and sufficient?
Understand “necessary” and “sufficient” well. The logic of necessary and sufficient conditions should be clearly understood. They actually mean what they say but it can be confusing and misleading sometimes. What is necessary may not be sufficient. What is sufficient may not be necessary. Sometimes, a condition can be necessary and sufficient.
Which is a first order necessary optimality condition for an unconstrained minimization problem?
The above corollary is a first order necessary optimality condition for an unconstrained minimization problem. The following theorem is a second order necessary optimality condition f ( ̄ x) = 0 and H ( ̄ x) is positive semidefinite. Proof: From the first order necessary condition, f ( ̄ x) = 0.
Is sufficient condition a local minimum?
The necessary condition is true for a local minimum and a local maximum. So, it is not sufficient to conclude that a given value of x is a local minimum. Is sufficient condition also necessary? Consider... Necessary condition is satisfied. satisfied. But x* = 0, is a minimizer here! So, sufficient condition is not necessary.
What is an unconstrained optimization problem?
As we have discussed in the first chapter, an unconstrained optimization problem deals with finding the local minimizer x ∗ x∗ of a real valued and smooth objective function f(x)f (x) of nn variables, given by f: Rn → Rf: Rn → R, formulated as, min f(x)x ∈ Rn with no restrictions on the decision variables xx.
