where ƒ is the function to be minimized, the inequality constraints and the equality constraints, and where, respectively, , and are the indices sets of inactive, active and equality constraints and is an optimal solution of , then there exists a non-zero vector = [,,, …,] such that:
For very simple problems, say a function of two variables subject to a single equality constraint, it is most practical to apply the method of substitution. [4] The idea is to substitute the constraint into the objective function to create a composite function that incorporates the effect of the constraint.
Consider a family of convex optimization problems of the form: minimize f(x) s.t. x is in G, where f is a convex function and G is a convex set (a subset of an Euclidean space R n). Each problem p in the family is represented by a data-vector Data( p ), e.g., the real-valued coefficients in matrices and vectors representing the function f and ...
In mathematical optimization, the method of Lagrange multipliers is a strategy for finding the local maxima and minima of a function subject to equation constraints (i.e., subject to the condition that one or more equations have to be satisfied exactly by the chosen values of the variables). [1] It is named after the mathematician Joseph-Louis ...
Minimize subject to the algebraic constraints = () Depending upon the type of direct method employed, the size of the nonlinear optimization problem can be quite small (e.g., as in a direct shooting or quasilinearization method), moderate (e.g. pseudospectral optimal control [ 11 ] ) or may be quite large (e.g., a direct collocation method [ 12
The revised simplex method is mathematically equivalent to the standard simplex method but differs in implementation. Instead of maintaining a tableau which explicitly represents the constraints adjusted to a set of basic variables, it maintains a representation of a basis of the matrix representing the constraints. The matrix-oriented approach ...

Direction-finding subproblem: Find solving Minimize () Subject to (Interpretation: Minimize the linear approximation of the problem given by the first-order Taylor approximation of around constrained to stay within .)
minimize f(x) subject to x ≤ b. where b is some constant. If one wishes to remove the inequality constraint, the problem can be reformulated as minimize f(x) + c(x), where c(x) = ∞ if x > b, and zero otherwise. This problem is equivalent to the first.
