Resumen:
The stabilized version of the sequential quadratic programming algorithm
(sSQP) had been developed in order to achieve fast convergence despite
possible degeneracy of constraints of optimization problems, when the
Lagrange multipliers associated to a solution are not unique.
Superlinear convergence of sSQP had been previously established under
the second-order sufficient condition for optimality (SOSC) and the
Mangasarian-Fromovitz constraint qualification, or under the strong
second-order sufficient condition for optimality (in that case, without
constraint qualification assumptions). We prove a stronger superlinear
convergence result than the above, assuming SOSC only. In addition, our
analysis is carried out in the more general setting of variational
problems, for which we introduce a natural extension of sSQP techniques.
In the process, we also obtain a new error bound for Karush-Kuhn-Tucker
systems for variational problems.
