AbstractRecently we have developed a completely symmetric duality theory for mathematical programming problems involving convex functionals. Here we set our theory within the framework of a Lagrangian formalism which is significantly different to the conventional Lagrangian. This allows various new characterizations of optimality.

Duality theory plays an important role in optimization theory. It has been extensively used for many theoretical and computational problems in mathematical programming. In this paper duality results are established for first and second order Wolfe and Mond-Weir type symmetric dual programs over general polyhedral cones in complex spaces. Corresponding duality relations for nondifferentiable case are also stated. This work will also remove inconsistencies in the earlier work from the literature.

The problem of determining the optimum machining conditions for a job requiring multiple operations has been investigated. Three objectives, namely, the minimization of the cost of production per piece, the maximization of the production rate and, the maximization of the profit are considered in this work. In addition to the usual constraints that arise from the individual machine tools, some coupling constraints have been included in the formulation. The problems are formulated as standard mathematical programming problems, and nonlinear programming techniques are used to solve the problems.
