Sufficiency and Duality for Nonsmooth Interval-Valued Optimization Problems via Generalized Invex-Infine Functions

In this paper,a new concept of generalized-affineness type of functions is introduced.This class of functions is more general than some of the corresponding ones discussed in Chuong(Nonlinear Anal Theory Methods Appl 75:5044–5052,2018),Sach et al.(J Global Optim 27:51–81,2003)and Nobakhtian(Comput Math Appl 51:1385–1394,2006).These concepts are used to discuss the sufficient optimality conditions for the interval-valued programming problem in terms of the limiting/Mordukhovich subdifferential of locally Lipschitz functions.Furthermore,two types of dual problems,namely Mond–Weir type and mixed type duals are formulated for an interval-valued programming problem and usual duality theorems are derived.Our results improve and generalize the results appeared in Kummari and Ahmad(UPB Sci Bull Ser A 82(1):45–54,2020).

SEMILINEAR HEMIVARIATIONAL INEQUALITIES WITH STRONG RESONANCE AT INFINITY

A semilinear elliptic equation with strong resonance at infinity and with a nonsmooth potential is studied. Using nonsmooth critical point theory and developing some abstract minimax principles which complement and extend results in the literature, two results on existence are obtained.

ON NONLINEAR ELLIPTIC HEMIVARIATIONAL INEQUALITIES OF SECOND ORDER

In this paper, a nonlinear hemivariational inequality of second order with a forcing term of subcritical growth is studied. Using techniques from multivalued analysis and the theory of nonlinear operators of monotone type, an existence theorem for the Dirichlet boundary value problem is proved.

Geometric Conditions of Differentiability for a Regular Locally Lipschitz Function

The differentiability of a norm of a Banach space may be characterized by its unit sphere.This paper generalizes these geometric conditions of norm’s differentiability to the case of a regular locally Lipschitz function.

Existence of Nontrivial Solutions for p-Laplacian Variational Inclusion Systems in R^N

The authors study the existence of nontrivial solutions to p-Laplacian variational inclusion systems where N ≥ 2, 2 ≤ p ≤ N and F ： R^2 →% is a locally Lipschitz function. Under some growth conditions on F, and by Mountain Pass Theorem and the principle of symmetric criticality, the existence of such solutions is guaranteed.

Nonsmooth Semi-Infinite Minmax Programming Involving Generalized(Φ, ρ)-Invexity

This paper introduces some new generalizations of the concept of （~, p）-invexity for non- differentiable locally Lipschitz functions using the tools of Clarke subdifferential. These functions are used to derive the necessary and sufficient optimality conditions for a class of nonsmooth semi-infinite minmax programming problems, where set of restrictions are indexed in a compact set. Utilizing the sufficient optimality conditions, the authors formulate three types of dual models and establish weak and strong duality results. The results of the paper extend and unify naturally some earlier results from the literature.
