In practice, it is difficult to obtain an analytical description of the distance to the reachable set for the sophisticated state equation of the plant.

This calls for a new analysis of the necessary optimality conditions for multiobjective optimization. We explore conditions for sets of points that share the same features of the necessary optimality conditions for single-objective optimization. On the one hand, from a theoretical point of view, these conditions define properties that are necessarily satisfied by the (weakly) efficient set.

Solving the non-Lipschitz MPEC is highly challenging since the standard constraint qualifications fail due to the existence of equilibrium constraints and the subdifferential of the objective function is unbounded due to the existence of the non-Lipschitz function. On the one hand, for tackling the non-Lipschitzness of the objective function, we introduce a novel class of locally Lipschitz approximation functions that consolidate and unify a diverse range of existing smoothing techniques for the non-Lipschitz function. On the other hand, we use the Kanzow and Schwartz regularization scheme to approximate the equilibrium constraints since this regularization can preserve certain perpendicular structure as in equilibrium constraints, which can induce better convergence results. Then an approximation method is proposed for solving the non-Lipschitz MPEC and its convergence is established under weak conditions. In contrast with existing results, the proposed method can converge to a better stationary point under weaker qualification conditions.
