In this paper, we prove a necessary optimality theorem for a nonsmooth optimization problem in the face of data uncertainty, which is called a robust optimization problem. Recently, the robust optimization problems have been intensively studied by many authors. Moreover, we give examples showing that the convexity of the uncertain sets and the concavity of the constraint functions are essential in the optimality theorem. We present an example illustrating that our main assumptions in the optimality theorem can be weakened.

In this paper we deal with linear chance-constrained optimization problems, a class of problems which naturally arise in practical applications in finance, engineering, transportation and scheduling, where decisions are made in presence of uncertainty. After giving the deterministic equivalent formulation of a linear chance-constrained optimization problem we construct a conjugate dual problem to it. Then we provide for this primal-dual pair weak sufficient conditions which ensure strong duality. In this way we generalize some results recently given in the literature. We also apply the general duality scheme to a portfolio optimization problem, a fact that allows us to derive necessary and sufficient optimality conditions for it.

The nonconvex and nonsmooth optimization problem has been widely applicable in image processing and machine learning. In this paper, we propose an extension of the proximal iteratively reweighted ℓ₁ algorithm for nonconvex and nonsmooth minmization problem. We assume the co-coerciveness of a term of objective function instead of Lipschitz gradient condition, which is generalized property of Lipschitz continuity. We prove the global convergence of the proposed algorithm. Numerical results show that the proposed algorithm converges faster than original proximal iteratively reweighed algorithm and existing algorithms.

A generalized nondifferentiable fractional optimization problem (GFP), which consists of a maximum objective function defined by finite fractional functions with differentiable functions and support functions, and a constraint set defined by differentiable functions, is considered. Recently, Kim et al. [Journal of Optimization Theory and Applications 129 (2006), no. 1, 131-146] proved optimality theorems and duality theorems for a nondifferentiable multiobjective fractional programming problem (MFP), which consists of a vector-valued function whose components are fractional functions with differentiable functions and support functions, and a constraint set defined by differentiable functions. In fact if $\overline{x}$ is a solution of (GFP), then $\overline{x}$ is a weakly efficient solution of (MFP), but the converse may not be true. So, it seems to be not trivial that we apply the approach of Kim et al. to (GFP). However, modifying their approach, we obtain optimality conditions and duality results for (GFP).

A sequential optimality condition characterizing the efficient solution without any constraint qualification for an abstract convex vector optimization problem is given in sequential forms using subdifferentials and ${\epsilon}$-subdifferentials. Another sequential condition involving only the subdifferentials, but at nearby points to the efficient solution for constraints, is also derived. Moreover, we present a proposition with a sufficient condition for an efficient solution to be properly efficient, which are a generalization of the well-known Isermann result for a linear vector optimization problem. An example is given to illustrate the significance of our main results. Also, we give an example showing that the proper efficiency may not imply certain closeness assumption.

The optimum design of truss structures is one of the significant categories in structural optimization that has widely been applied by researchers. In the present study, new mathematical programming called Consistent Approximation (CONAP) method is utilized for the simultaneous optimization of the size and shape of truss structures. The CONAP algorithm has already been introduced to optimize some structures and functions. In the CONAP algorithm, some important parameters are designed by employing design sensitivities to enhance the capability of the method and its consistency in various optimum design problems, especially structural optimization. The cross-sectional area of the bar elements and the nodal coordinates of the truss are assumed to be the size and shape design variables, respectively. The displacement, allowable stress and the Euler buckling stress are taken as the design constraints for the problem. In the proposed method, the primary optimization problem is replaced with a sequence of explicit sub-problems. Each sub-problem is efficiently solved using the sequential quadratic programming (SQP) algorithm. Several truss structures are designed by employing the CONAP method to illustrate the efficiency of the algorithm for simultaneous shape and size optimization. The optimal solutions are compared with some of the mathematical programming algorithms, the approximation methods and metaheuristic algorithms those reported in the literature. Results demonstrate that the accuracy of the optimization is improved and the convergence rate speeds up.
