Second-order univex functions and generalized duality models for multiobjective programming problems containing arbitrary norms

G. J. Zalmai

Northern Michigan University

Abstract

In this paper, we introduce three new broad classes of second-order generalized convex functions, namely, $(\mathcal{F},b,\phi,\rho,\theta)$-so\-univex functions, $(\mathcal{F},b,\phi,\rho,\theta)$-pseudo\-so\-univex functions, and $(\mathcal{F},b,\phi,\rho,\theta)$-quasi\-so\-univex functions; formulate eight general second-order duality models; and prove appropriate duality theorems under various generalized $(\mathcal{F},b$, $\phi,\rho,\theta)$-so\-univexity assumptions for a multiobjective programming problem containing arbitrary norms.

Keywords: multiobjective programming, generalized $(\mathcal{F},b,\phi,\rho,\theta)$-sounivex functions, arbitrary norms, dual problems, duality theorems
