Abstract

In this work, we develop a new algorithm for solving a discrete quadratic fractional maximum problem in which the objective is to optimize a ratio of two quadratic functions over a set of integer points contained in a convex polytope. This algorithm is based on a branch and bound method on computation of penalties and a related integer linear fractional programs.For this problem, optimality conditions are derived. A numerical example is presented for illustrating the proposed method.
