Duality for non-differentiable multi-objective semi-infinite programming for higher order invex functions

Abstract

This paper deals with non-differentiable multi-objective semi-infinite programming problem. It is a problem of simultaneous minimisation of finitely many scalar valued functions subject to an arbitrary (possibly infinite) set of constraints. Non-differentiability enters, due to the square root of a quadratic form which appears in the objective functional. Concept of efficiency of order m has been extended to the above stated problem. In order to study this new solution concept, the notion of ρ-invexity of order m is also proposed which is utilised to establish sufficient optimality conditions for the non-differentiable multi-objective semi-infinite programming problem. Mond-Weir type of dual is proposed for which weak, strong and strict converse duality theorems are established.
