An exact penalty approach to constrained minimization problems on metric spaces

摘要

In this paper we use the penalty approach in order to study a class of constrained minimization problems on complete metric spaces. A penalty function is said to have the generalized exact penalty property if there is a penalty coefficient for which approximate solutions of the unconstrained penalized problem are close enough to approximate solutions of the corresponding constrained problem. For our class of problems we establish the generalized exact penalty property and obtain an estimation of the exact penalty.
