This paper presents results which apply to convex programming problem in parametric form. The results secured are also related to the problem of fractional programming in a way which indicates computational possibilities for the latter class of problems. The results are extended to general non-linear programming problems with special reference to continuous criterion functions. As a particular case, the linear fractional programming problem is considered and, in conclusion, the results secured here are pointed up by reference to existing algorithms for the latter class of problems.
Summary: This paper develops duality results for nonlinear fractional programming problems. This is accomplished by using some known results connecting the solutions of a nonlinear fractional program with those of a suitably defined parametric convex program.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
