Bilevel programs with extremal value function: global optimality

For a bilevel program with extremal value function, a necessary and sufficient condition for global optimality is given, which reduces the bilevel program to a max-min problem with linked constraints. Also, for the case where the extremal value function is polyhedral, this optimality condition give...
