Abstract

In this paper, a pair of Wolfe type second-order multiobjective symmetric dual programs involving nondifferentiable functions is formulated. Weak, strong and converse duality theorems are then established using the notion of second-order F-convexity assumptions. An example which is second-order F-convex but not convex is also illustrated. Further, special cases are discussed to show that this paper extends some known results of the literature.
