Purpose
handle_set_nlnhess is a part of the NAG optimization modelling suite and defines or redefines either the structure of the Hessians of the nonlinear objective and constraints or the structure of the Hessian of the Lagrangian.

Description
After the
handle has been initialized (e.g.,
handle_init has been called),
and a nonlinear objective function
and/or
the
th (
)
nonlinear constraint function
has been registered with
handle_set_nlnconstr and
handle_set_nlnobj,
then
handle_set_nlnhess may be used to define the sparsity structure (pattern) of the Hessians
of those functions or of their Lagrangian function. Define:
-
, and
for
- handle_set_nlnhess can be used to define the following sparsity structures:
- the Hessian of the Lagrangian function ,
- the Hessian of the objective function , or
- the Hessian of the th constraint function
with
.
In general, each of the symmetric
Hessian matrices will have its own sparsity structure. These structures can be given in separate
handle_set_nlnhess calls, or merged together in the Lagrangian and given in one call. The nonzero values of the Hessians at particular points will be communicated to the NLP solver by user-supplied functions (e.g.,
hess for
handle_solve_ipopt). The values will need to be provided in the order matching the sparsity pattern.
Note that the Hessians are automatically deleted whenever the underlying functions change. For example, if
handle_set_nlnconstr is called to redefine the nonlinear constraints, all individual constraints Hessians or Hessian of the Lagrangian would be deleted. If a nonlinear objective function was changed to linear, the Hessian of the objective function or of the Lagrangian would be deleted.
handle_set_nlnhess can work either with individual Hessians or with the Hessian of the Lagrangian but not both. Therefore, if the Hessian of the Lagrangian was defined and
handle_set_nlnhess was called to define an individual Hessian of the constraint, the Hessian of the Lagrangian would be removed, and vice versa. Hessians can be redefined by multiple calls of
handle_set_nlnhess.

Arguments
-
1:
– CommE04RA
Input/Output
-
Communication structure.
An object of either the derived class
CommE04RA or its base class
NoneCopyableComm can be supplied.
It is recommended that the derived class is used. If the base class is supplied it must
first be initialized via a call to
opt::handle_init (e04ra).
-
2:
– types::f77_integer
Input
-
On entry: specifies the functions for which a Hessian sparsity structure is provided in
nnzh,
irowh and
icolh.
- The sparsity structure of the Hessian of the Lagrangian is provided.
- The sparsity structure of the Hessian of the objective function is provided.
- The sparsity structure of the Hessian of the idfth constraint function is provided.
The value of
idf will also determine how an NLP solver will call the user-supplied functions that evaluate these nonzeros at particular points of the decision variable space, i.e., whether the solver will expect the nonzero values of the objective and constraint Hessians in separate calls or merged in the Lagrangian Hessian, in one call. See, for example,
hess of
handle_solve_ipopt.
Constraint:
.
Note: , the number of nonlinear constraints registered with the handle.

– types::f77_integer array
Input
-
On entry: arrays
irowh and
icolh store the nonzeros of the upper triangle of the matrix
in coordinate storage (CS) format (see
Section 2.1.1 in the
F11 Chapter Introduction).
irowh specifies one-based row indices,
icolh specifies one-based column indices and specifies the values of the nonzero elements in such a way that
where
and
, for
. No particular order is expected, but elements should not repeat.
Constraint:
