In optimal control, the situation is more complicated because of the possibility of a singular solution.The generalized Legendre–Clebsch condition, [1] also known as convexity, [2] is a sufficient condition for local optimality such that when the linear sensitivity of the Hamiltonian to changes in u is zero, i.e.,
A sufficient condition for satisfaction of the second-order conditions for a minimum is that have full column rank, in which case is positive definite. Derivation without calculus [ edit ]
The conditions that distinguish maxima, or minima, from other stationary points are called 'second-order conditions' (see 'Second derivative test'). If a candidate solution satisfies the first-order conditions, then the satisfaction of the second-order conditions as well is sufficient to establish at least local optimality.
If the domain is just the real line, then () is just the second derivative ″ (), so the condition becomes ″ (). If m = 0 {\displaystyle m=0} then this means the Hessian is positive semidefinite (or if the domain is the real line, it means that f ″ ( x ) ≥ 0 {\displaystyle f''(x)\geq 0} ), which implies the function is convex, and ...
Equivalently, the second-order conditions that are sufficient for a local minimum or maximum can be expressed in terms of the sequence of principal (upper-leftmost) minors (determinants of sub-matrices) of the Hessian; these conditions are a special case of those given in the next section for bordered Hessians for constrained optimization—the ...
Quasiconvexity is a generalisation of convexity for functions defined on matrices, to see this let and ((,),) with (,) =. The Riesz-Markov-Kakutani representation theorem states that the dual space of C 0 ( R m × d ) {\displaystyle C_{0}(\mathbb {R} ^{m\times d})} can be identified with the space of signed, finite Radon measures on it.
The "second-order cone" in SOCP arises from the constraints, which are equivalent to requiring the affine function (+, +) to lie in the second-order cone in +. [ 1 ] SOCPs can be solved by interior point methods [ 2 ] and in general, can be solved more efficiently than semidefinite programming (SDP) problems. [ 3 ]
In mathematical optimization, the Karush–Kuhn–Tucker (KKT) conditions, also known as the Kuhn–Tucker conditions, are first derivative tests (sometimes called first-order necessary conditions) for a solution in nonlinear programming to be optimal, provided that some regularity conditions are satisfied.
