Necessary conditions for continuous-time optimization under the Mangasarian-Fromovitz constraint qualification

摘要

In this paper, a Mangasarian-Fromovitz-type regularity condition is presented with the purpose of obtaining first order necessary optimality conditions for continuous-time nonlinear programming problems with both equality and inequality constraints. The Karush-Kuhn-Tucker-type optimality conditions are obtained by means of geometric ideas, where a theorem of the alternative and a uniform implicit function theorem are the main tools.
