‎In this paper‎, ‎some KKT type sufficient global optimality conditions‎ ‎for general mixed integer nonlinear programming problems with‎ ‎equality and inequality constraints (MINPP) are established‎. ‎We achieve‎ ‎this by employing a Lagrange function for MINPP‎. ‎In addition‎, ‎verifiable sufficient global optimality conditions for general mixed‎ ‎integer quadratic programming problems are der...

We present necessary and sufficient optimality conditions for a problem with a convex set constraint and a quasiconvex objective function. We apply the obtained results to a mathematical programming problem involving quasiconvex functions.

In this paper bearing the same title as our earlier survey-paper [11] we pursue the goal of characterizing the global solutions of an optimization problem, i.e. getting at necessary and sufficient conditions for a feasible point to be a global minimizer (or maximizer) of the objective function. We emphasize nonconvex optimization problems presenting some specific structures like ‘convexanticonv...
