Abstract

This paper presents a stable solvability theorem for general inequality systems under a local closedness condition. It is shown how this mild regularity condition can be characterized by the validity of the solvability theorem for all local perturbations. Based on this solvability theorem zero duality gap and stability are established for general minimax fractional programming problems.
