When the objective function is not locally Lipschitz, constraint qualifications are no longer sufficient for Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) conditions to hold at a local minimizer, let alone ensuring an exact penalization. In this paper, we…

We consider the convex optimization problem $\min \{f(x) : g_j(x)\leq 0, j=1,...,m\}$ where $f$ is convex, the feasible set K is convex and Slater's condition holds, but the functions $g_j$ are not necessarily convex. We show that for any…
