Abstract

A class of constrained multiobjective fractional programming problems is considered from a viewpoint of the generalized convexity. Some basic concepts about the generalized convexity of functions, including a unified formulation of generalized convexity, are presented. Based upon the concept of the generalized convexity, efficiency conditions and duality for a class of multiobjective fractional programming problems are obtained. For three types of duals of the multiobjective fractional programming problem, the corresponding duality theorems are also established.
