Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: nonnegative inequality multipliers preserve convexity of the weighted Kuhn--Tucker objective on the ambient constraint set.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: if the ambient constraint set is closed, then the
indicator-extended Kuhn--Tucker objective is a closed convex function on ℝ^n.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: once the ambient constraint set is known to be nonempty, the
indicator-extended Kuhn--Tucker objective is already a proper convex function on ℝ^n.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: once the ambient constraint set is closed, the existing closed/proper bridge proves that the unique minimizer of the indicator-extended Kuhn--Tucker objective is the unique optimal solution of the program.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: once the ambient constraint set is closed, the unique minimizer
xbar supplied by the corollary is already an explicit optimal-solution witness.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: once some optimal solution exists, Theorem 6.28.1 already
identifies that witness with the unique global minimizer xbar, so xbar is optimal.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: once some optimal solution of (P) is known to exist, Theorem
6.28.1 and uniqueness of the global minimizer already force that optimal solution to equal xbar,
so xbar is itself the unique optimal solution.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: a feasible point whose objective value realizes
P.optimalValue is already an optimal solution.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: every optimal solution attains the primal optimal value.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: an existing optimal solution can be repackaged as a feasible
point whose objective realizes P.optimalValue.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: primal optimal-solution existence is equivalent to the
attainment of P.optimalValue by some feasible point.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: whenever the closed-constraint-set route is available, the
distinguished minimizer xbar yields the feasible primal value-attainer needed by the local
endgame.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: once a feasible point attains P.optimalValue, the earlier
optimal-witness helper identifies that point with the unique minimizer xbar.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: once some feasible point realizes P.optimalValue, the unique
global minimizer xbar itself becomes a feasible value-attainer.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: under the unique-minimizer hypothesis, the corollary conclusion
is equivalent to the existence of a feasible point attaining P.optimalValue.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: the global minimizer xbar already lies in the ambient
constraint set and attains the common extended Kuhn--Tucker value P.optimalValue.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: once a near-optimal feasible sequence converges to a point
already known to lie in the ambient constraint set, the closed-data hypotheses force that limit
point to be a feasible point attaining P.optimalValue.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: once xbar itself is already known to be feasible and to
realize P.optimalValue, the required convergent near-optimal feasible sequence is the constant
sequence at xbar.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: under the closed-data limit argument already proved above,
asking for a convergent near-optimal feasible sequence is equivalent to asking directly that
xbar be feasible and attain P.optimalValue.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: once the corollary conclusion itself is known, xbar is already
feasible and its objective value realizes P.optimalValue.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: if the corollary conclusion is already known, the constant
sequence at xbar is a convergent near-optimal feasible sequence.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: the remaining closed-data bridge can be stated directly as
feasibility of xbar together with equality of its objective value and P.optimalValue.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: once xbar itself is known to be feasible and to realize
P.optimalValue, the corollary conclusion follows from the existing optimality and uniqueness
bridges.
Helper for Corollary 6.28.1: the closed-data hypotheses already force the unique minimizer
xbar to be an optimal solution of the primal problem.
