On Subdifferentials Via a Generalized Conjugation Scheme: An Application to DC Problems and Optimality Conditions
Abstract
This paper studies properties of a subdifferential defined using a generalized conjugation scheme. We relate this subdifferential together with the domain of an appropriate conjugate function and the ε-directional derivative. In addition, we also present necessary conditions for ε-optimality and global optimality in optimization problems involving the difference of two convex functions. These conditions will be written via this generalized notion of subdifferential studied in the first sections of the paper.
