Economic Interpretation of Lagrange Multipliers

The Lagrange multipliers have an important economic interpretation as shadow prices of the constraints, and their optimal values are very useful in sensitivity analysis.

Kuhn-Tucker Theorems

1. Kuhn Tucker Necessity Theorem 2. Kuhn Tucker Sufficient Theorem

Page 34

Kuhn-Tucker Necessity Theorem

Let f, g, and h be differentiable functions x* be a feasible solution to the NLP problem. and for k=1,.,K are linearly independent
Page 35

Kuhn-Tucker Necessity Theorem

Let f, g, andConstraint h be differentiable functions x* be a qualification feasible solution to the NLP problem.
and for k=1,.,K are linearly independent at the optimum If x* is an optimal solution to NLP problem, ! Hard to verify, since itthe requires that then there exists a (u*, v*) suchbe that (x*,u*, v*) the optimum solution known solves the KTP given by KTC.! beforehand
Page 36

Kuhn-Tucker Necessity Theorem

For certain special NLP problems, the constraint qualification is satisfied: 1. When all the inequality and equality constraints are linear 2. When all the inequality constraints are concave functions and equality constraints are linear ! When the constraint qualification is not met at the optimum, there may not exist a solution to the KTP
Page 37

Example 5.5

x* = (1, 0)

and for k=1,.,K are linearly independent at the optimum


Page 38

Example 5.5
x* = (1, 0)

No Kuhn-Tucker point at the optimum

Page 39

Kuhn-Tucker Necessity Theorem


Given a feasible point that satisfies the constraint qualification

not optimal
If it does not satisfy the KTCs

If it does satisfy the KTCs

Kuhn-Tucker Sufficiency Theorem

Let f(x) be convex the inequality constraints gj(x) for j=1,,J be all concave function the equality constraints hk(x) for k=1,,K be linear

If there exists a solution (x*,u*,v*) that satisfies KTCs, then x* is an optimal solution
Page 42

Example 5.4

f(x) be convex the inequality constraints gj(x) for j=1,,J be all concave function the equality constraints hk(x) for k=1,,K be linear

Page 43

Example 5.4

f(x) be convex

semi-definite

Page 44

Example 5.4

f(x) be convex v the inequality constraints gj(x) for j=1,,J be all concave function

g1(x) linear, hence both convex and concave negative definite

Page 45

Example 5.4

f(x) be convex v the inequality constraints gj(x) for j=1,,J be all concave function the equality constraints hk(x) for k=1,,K be linear

Page 46

Remarks
For practical problems, the constraint qualification will generally hold. If the functions are differentiable, a KuhnTucker point is a possible candidate for the optimum. Hence, many of the NLP methods attempt to converge to a Kuhn Tucker point.

Page 47

Remarks
When the sufficiency conditions of Theorem 5.2 hold, a KuhnTucker point automatically becomes the global minimum. Unfortunately, the sufficiency conditions are difficult to verify, and often practical problems may not possess these nice properties. Note that the presence of one nonlinear equality constraint is enough to violate the assumptions of Theorem 5.2

Page 48

Remarks
The sufficiency conditions of Theorem 5.2 have been generalized further to nonconvex inequality constraints, nonconvex objectives, and nonlinear equality constraints. These use generalizations of convex functions such as quasi-convex and pseudoconvex functions
