Abstract

A new proof of the Kuhn–Tucker theorem on necessary conditions for a minimum of a differentiable function of several variables in the case of inequality constraints is given. The proof relies on a simple inequality (common in textbooks) for the projection of a vector onto a convex set.

Article
Given a system of nonlinear equations, a formula is derived for the family of its approximate solutions of up to the pth order of smallness. A formula approximating an implicit function up to the third order of smallness is presented. Iterative methods converging with the pth order are constructed for solving systems of nonlinear equations. These results are extended to the degenerate case. Examples of applying the results are given.
Article
We present an elementary proof of the Karush–Kuhn–Tucker theorem for the problem with a finite number of nonlinear inequality constraints in normed linear spaces under the linear independence constraint qualification. Most proofs in the literature rely on advanced concepts and results such as the convex separation theorem and Farkas, lemma. By contrast, the proofs given in this article, including a proof of the lemma, employ only basic results from linear algebra. The lemma derived in this article represents an independent theoretical result.
