Given the continuous problem function and discrete time stochastic optimization process, the ACR is the optimal constant for control of the asymptotic behaviour of the expected approximation errors. Under general assumptions, condition ACR<span>(<1)</span> implies the linear behaviour of the expected time of hitting the <span>(varepsilon )</span>- optimal sublevel set with <span>(varepsilon rightarrow 0^+ )</span> and determines the upper bound for the convergence rate of the trajectories of the process. This paper provides general characterization of ACR and, in particular, shows that some algorithms cannot converge linearly fast for any nontrivial continuous optimization problem. The relation between asymptotic convergence rate in the objective space and asymptotic convergence rate in the search space is provided. Examples and numerical simulations with use of a (1+1) self-adaptive evolution strategy and other algorithms are presented.</p>","PeriodicalId":15961,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Global Optimization","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138524762","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

If the <span>(Gamma )</span>-robust uncertainty set is nonconvex, it is hard to prove the existence of solutions to the corresponding robust counterpart. Using techniques of asymptotic functions, we establish existence theorems of solutions to the corresponding robust counterpart. For the case of nonconvex <span>(Gamma )</span>-robust ellipsoidal uncertainty sets, these existence results are not proved in the paper [Krebs et al., Int. Trans. Oper. Res. 29 (2022), pp. 417–441]; for the case of convex <span>(Gamma )</span>-robust ellipsoidal uncertainty sets, our existence theorems are obtained under the conditions which are much weaker than those in Krebs’ paper. Finally, a case study for the uncertain traffic equilibrium problem is considered to illustrate the effects of nonconvex uncertainty sets on the level of conservatism of robust solutions.\u0000</p>","PeriodicalId":15961,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Global Optimization","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138524763","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
