Semi-infinite programming

In optimization theory, semi-infinite programming (SIP) is an optimization problem with a finite number of variables and an infinite number of constraints, or an infinite number of variables and a finite number of constraints. In the former case the constraints are typically parameterized.^[1]

Mathematical formulation of the problem

The problem can be stated simply as:

\min_{x \in X}\;\; f(x)

{\text{subject to: }}\

g(x,y) \le 0, \;\; \forall y \in Y

where

f: R^n \to R

g: R^n \times R^m \to R

X \subseteq R^n

Y \subseteq R^m.

SIP can be seen as a special case of bilevel programs in which the lower-level variables do not participate in the objective function.
