Abstract: | This study is devoted to constraint qualifications and Kuhn-Tucker type necessary optimality conditions for nonsmooth optimization problems involving locally Lipschitz functions. The main tool of the study is the concept of convexificators. First, the case of a minimization problem in the presence of an arbitrary set constraint is considered by using the contingent cone and the adjacent cone to the constraint set. Then, in the case of a minimization problem with inequality constraints, Abadie type constraint qualifications and several other qualifications are proposed; Kuhn-Tucker type necessary optimality conditions are derived under the qualifications.Communicated by S.
