On an Exact Penalty Result and New Constraint Qualifications for Mathematical Programs with Vanishing Constraints
Abstract
In this paper, the mathematical programs with vanishing constraints or MPVC are considered. We prove that an MPVC-tailored penalty function, introduced in [5], is still exact under a very weak and new constraint qualification. Most importantly, this constraint qualification is shown to be strictly stronger than MPVC-Abadie constraint qualification.
