Abstract

A survey is given of old and new results on the sensitivity of solutions to systems of optimality conditions with respect to parametric perturbations. Results of this kind play a key role in subtle convergence analysis of various constrained optimization algorithms. General systems of optimality conditions for problems with abstract constraints, Karush-Kuhn-Tucker systems for mathematical programs, and Lagrange systems for problems with equality constraints are examined. Special attention is given to the cases where the traditional constraint qualifications are violated.
