| contents | We provide sharp and explicit characterizations of the normal cone to sublevel sets of suprema of arbitrary functions, expressed exclusively in terms of subdifferentials of the data functions. In the convex case, the resulting formulas involve the approximate subdifferential of the individual data functions at the nominal point. In contrast, the quasi-convex framework requires the use of the Fréchet subdifferential of these data functions but evaluated at nearby points. These results are applied to derive optimality conditions for infinite convex and quasi-convex optimization problems. |
