Title:	Optimization with hidden constraints and embedded Monte Carlo computations

Abstract:	In this paper we explore the convergence properties of deterministic direct search methods when the objective function contains a stochastic or Monte Carlo simulation. We present new results for the case where the objective is only defined on a set with certain minimal regularity properties. We present two numerical examples to illustrate the ideas.
