Multiobjective Duality for Convex Semidefinite Programming Problems

On duality theory for non-convex semidefinite programming

In this paper, with the help of convex-like function, we discuss the duality theory for nonconvex semidefinite programming. Our contributions are: duality theory for the general nonconvex semidefinite programming when Slater’s condition holds; perfect duality for a special case of the nonconvex semidefinite programming for which Slater’s condition fails. We point out that the results of [2] can...

Benson's algorithm for nonconvex multiobjective problems via nonsmooth Wolfe duality

‎In this paper‎, ‎we propose an algorithm to obtain an approximation set of the (weakly) nondominated points of nonsmooth multiobjective optimization problems with equality and inequality constraints‎. ‎We use an extension of the Wolfe duality to construct the separating hyperplane in Benson's outer algorithm for multiobjective programming problems with subdifferentiable functions‎. ‎We also fo...

Optimality and Duality for an Efficient Solution of Multiobjective Nonlinear Fractional Programming Problem Involving Semilocally Convex Functions

In this paper, the problem under consideration is multiobjective non-linear fractional programming problem involving semilocally convex and related functions. We have discussed the interrelation between the solution sets involving properly efficient solutions of multiobjective fractional programming and corresponding scalar fractional programming problem. Necessary and sufficient optimality...

Strong Duality for Semidefinite Programming

It is well known that the duality theory for linear programming (LP) is powerful and elegant and lies behind algorithms such as simplex and interior-point methods. However, the standard Lagrangian for nonlinear programs requires constraint qualifications to avoid duality gaps. Semidefinite linear programming (SDP) is a generalization of LP where the nonnegativity constraints are replaced by a s...
