Abstract

This paper provides some theorems of the alternative for non-linear functions (sublinearconvex) between topological vector spaces. These results are then applied to establish optimality conditions for convex programming and general non-differentiable programming problems.

Zusammenfassung

Diese Arbeit gibt einige Alternativsätze für nichtlineare (sublinear-konvexe) Funktionen zwischen topologischen Vektorräumen. Diese Resultate werden benutzt, um Optimalitätsbedingungen für konvexe und allgemeine nichtdifferenzierbare Optimierungsprobleme aufzustellen.
