Two characterizations of Pareto minima in convex multicriteria optimization

Sanjo Zlobec (1984)

Aplikace matematiky

Similarity:

Two conditions are given each of which is both necessary and sufficient for a point to be a global Pareto minimum. The first one is obtained by studying programs where each criterion appears as a single objective function, while the second one is given in terms of a "restricted Lagrangian". The conditions are compared with the familiar characterizations of properly efficient and weakly efficient points of Karlin and Geoffrion.

LFS functions in multi-objective programming

Luka Neralić, Sanjo Zlobec (1996)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

We find conditions, in multi-objective convex programming with nonsmooth functions, when the sets of efficient (Pareto) and properly efficient solutions coincide. This occurs, in particular, when all functions have locally flat surfaces (LFS). In the absence of the LFS property the two sets are generally different and the characterizations of efficient solutions assume an asymptotic form for problems with three or more variables. The results are applied to a problem in highway construction,...

Reformulations in Mathematical Programming: Definitions and Systematics

Leo Liberti (2009)

RAIRO - Operations Research

Similarity:

A reformulation of a mathematical program is a formulation which shares some properties with, but is in some sense better than, the original program. Reformulations are important with respect to the choice and efficiency of the solution algorithms; furthermore, it is desirable that reformulations can be carried out automatically. Reformulation techniques are widespread in mathematical programming but interestingly they have never been studied under a unified framework. This paper attempts...
