The bilevel programming problem: reformulations, constraint qualifications and optimality conditions

The bilevel programming problem: reformulations, constraint qualifications and optimality conditions
The bilevel programming problem: reformulations, constraint qualifications and optimality conditions
We consider the bilevel programming problem and its optimal value and KKT one level reformulations. The two reformulations are studied in a unified manner and compared in terms of optimal solutions, constraint qualifications and optimality conditions. We also show that any bilevel programming problem where the lower level problem is linear with respect to the lower level variable, is partially calm without any restrictive assumption. Finally, we consider the bilevel demand adjustment problem in transportation, and show how KKT type optimality conditions can be obtained under the partial calmness, using the differential calculus of Mordukhovich.

Abstract

We consider the bilevel programming problem and its optimal value and KKT one level reformulations. The two reformulations are studied in a unified manner and compared in terms of optimal solutions, constraint qualifications and optimality conditions. We also show that any bilevel programming problem where the lower level problem is linear with respect to the lower level variable, is partially calm without any restrictive assumption. Finally, we consider the bilevel demand adjustment problem in transportation, and show how KKT type optimality conditions can be obtained under the partial calmness, using the differential calculus of Mordukhovich.
