Sensitivity Analysis for Two-Level Value Functions with Applications to Bilevel Programming

TL;DR: It is shown in this research that although the process of deriving necessary optimality conditions for the latter problem is more involved, the conditions themselves do not---to a large extent---differ from those known for the conventional problem.

Robust Distributed Linear Programming

TL;DR: In this paper, a robust, distributed algorithm to solve general linear programs is presented, based on the characterization of the solutions of the linear program as saddle points of a modified Lagrangian function.

On finite termination of an iterative method for linear complementarity problems

TL;DR: A Newton-type method will be described for the solution of LCPs and it will be shown that this method has a finite termination property, i.e., if an iterate is sufficiently close to a solution ofLCP, the method finds this solution in one step.

Neural network for solving convex quadratic bilevel programming problems

TL;DR: Using the idea of successive approximation, a neural network to solve convex quadratic bilevel programming problems (CQBPP) is proposed, which is modeled by a nonautonomous differential inclusion and has the least number of state variables and simple structure.

Perturbation Analysis of Production Networks

TL;DR: This chapter treats the problem of evaluating the sensitivity of performance measures to changes in system parameters for a class of stochastic models, called perturbation analysis, based either on a simulation or on real data.
