Abstract

A multiobjective variational problem involving higher order derivatives is considered and Fritz-John and Karush-Kuhn-Tucker type optimality conditions for this problem are derived. As an application of Karush-Kuhn-Tucker optimality conditions, Wolfe type dual to this variational problem is constructed and various duality results are validated under generalized invexity. Some special cases are mentioned and it is also pointed out that our results can be considered as a dynamic generalization of the already existing results in nonlinear programming.
