The paper presents a new method for solving irregular optimization problems with inequality constraints. Our results are based on the construction of p-regularity theory and on reformulating the inequality constraints as equalities. Namely, by introducing the slack variables of corresponding degree

✦ Synopsis
In this paper, we present pth-order necessary conditions for optimality for an optimization problem with inequality constraints in the finite-dimensional spaces. Models of this type arise as the discretization of optimal control problems, calculus of variations problems, and other problems. The paper addresses the degenerate (nonregular) case when the active constraint gradients are linearly dependent. In this case, the classical necessary conditions are either inapplicable or trivially satisfied with the zero multiplier corresponding to the objective function. The proposed high-order optimality conditions give new and nontrivial conditions for nonregular cases, and reduce to the classical conditions for regular cases.

A new Feasible Descent Cone (FDC) method for constrained optimization, previously restricted to linear objectives, is here generalized to include non-linear objective functions as well. In the basic and exact algorithm a sequence of descent steps is taken through the interior of the feasible region
In this paper, we consider a general class of functional inequality constrained minimax optimization problems. This problem is first converted into a semi-infinite programming problem. Then, an auxiliary cost function is constructed based on a positive saturated function. The smallest zero of this a
