Abstract

The aim of the present work is to use a metric intersection formula to estimate the subdifferential of the marginal function in the convex setting. This intersection formula includes many interesting situations in parametric convex programming, including the polyhedral one. It is expressed in terms of the objective function and the constrained multivalued mapping which govern the parametric program.
