Necessary conditions for transversality properties

Abstract: Transversality properties of collections of sets play an important role in optimization and variational analysis, e.g., as constraint qualifications, qualification conditions in subdifferential, normal cone and coderivative calculus, and convergence analysis of computational algorithms. In this talk, we present some new results on primal (geometric, metric, slope) and dual (subdifferential, normal cone) necessary (in some cases also sufficient) conditions for transversality properties in both linear and nonlinear settings. Quantitative relations between transversality properties and the corresponding regularity properties of set-valued mappings are also discussed.
