""" Numerical audit of Claim 2: KKT equivalence and convergence rate. Proposition 3.2: CSPO's augmented constrained objective shares the same KKT solution set as the original constrained problem. Convergence: CSPO converges to an approximate first-order KKT point at rate O(L^3 G^2 lambda_max^2 / epsilon^6). We verify: 1. The KKT conditions of the original and augmented problems are equivalent 2. The effective multiplier lambda_eff = lambda + alpha * w * [g(theta)]_+ preserves KKT structure 3.
