Mathematical programming with vanishing constraints (MPVC) represents a challenging class of optimisation problems where certain constraints become inactive—or “vanish”—depending on specific ...

Several case studies and theoretical reports indicate that the structuralist concept of a constraint has a central role in the reconstruction of physical theories. It is surprising that there is, in ...

We consider stochastic mathematical programs with complementarity constraints in which both the objective and constraints involve limit functions that need to be approximated. Such programs can be ...
