Abstract
We consider the class of semi-infinite programming problems which became in recent years a powerful tool for the mathematical modeling of many real-life problems. In this paper, we study an augmented Lagrangian approach to semi-infinite problems and present necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of corresponding augmented Lagrange multipliers. Furthermore, we discuss two particular cases for the augmenting function: the proximal Lagrangian and the sharp Lagrangian.
