Characterizations of strict local minima and necessary conditions for weak sharp minima. (English) Zbl 0797.90101
Summary: In nonlinear programming, sufficient conditions of order $$m$$ usually identify a special type of local minimizers, here termed a strict local minimizer of order $$m$$. It is demonstrated that, if a constraint qualification is satisfied, standard sufficient conditions often characterize this special sort of minimizer. The first- and second-order cases are treated in detail. Necessary conditions for weak sharp local minima of order $$m$$, a larger class of local minima, are also presented.
