Abstract

In this paper, the mathematical programs with vanishing constraints or MPVC are considered. We prove that an MPVC-tailored penalty function, introduced in [5], is still exact under a very weak and new constraint qualification. Most importantly, this constraint qualification is shown to be strictly stronger than MPVC-Abadie constraint qualification.
