Abstract

In this paper, we are concerned with a nonsmooth multiobjective optimization problem with inequality constraints. We introduce a second-order constraint qualification, which is a generalization of the Abadie constraint qualification and derive second-order Kuhn-Tucker type necessary conditions for efficiency under the constraint qualification. Moreover, we give some conditions which ensure the constraint qualification holds.
