Abstract
In this paper, the Fischer–Burmeister active-set trust-region (FBACTR) algorithm is introduced to solve the nonlinear bilevel programming problems. In FBACTR algorithm, a Karush–Kuhn–Tucker (KKT) condition is used with the Fischer–Burmeister function to transform a nonlinear bilevel programming (NBLP) problem into an equivalent smooth single objective nonlinear programming problem. To ensure global convergence for the FBACTR algorithm, an active-set strategy is used with a trust-region globalization strategy. The theory of global convergence for the FBACTR algorithm is presented. To clarify the effectiveness of the proposed FBACTR algorithm, applications of mathematical programs with equilibrium constraints are tested.
