ECE QE AC-3 August 2011 Solusion
1. (20 pts) Consider the optimization problem,
$ \text{maximize} -x_{1}^{2}+x_{1}-x_{2}-x_{1}x_{2} $
$ \text{subject to } x_{1}\geq0, x_{2}\geq0 $
(i) Characterize feasible directions at the point$ x^{*}=\left[ \begin{array}{c} \frac{1}{2} \\ 0 \end{array} \right] $
$ \color{blue}\text{Solution 1:} $
$ \text{We need to find a direction }d\text{, such that } \exists\alpha_{0}>0, $
$ \color{blue}\text{Solution 2:} $
$ d\in\Re_{2}, d\neq0 \text{ is a feasible direction at } x^{*} \text{, if} $ $ \exists\alpha_{0} $
$ \text{that } \left[ \begin{array}{c} \frac{1}{2} \\ 0 \end{array} \right] + \alpha\left[ \begin{array}{c} d_{1} \\ d_{2} \end{array} \right] \in\Omega \text{ for all } 0\leq\alpha\leq\alpha_{0} $
$ \because \begin{Bmatrix}x\in\Omega: x_{1}\geq0, x_{2}\geq0\end{Bmatrix} $
$ \therefore d= \left[ \begin{array}{c} d_{1} \\ d_{2} \end{array} \right], d_{1}\in\Re^{2}, d_{2}\neq0 $
