In this paper we formulate an optimal control problem governed by time-delay Volterra integral equations; the problem includes control constraints as well as terminal equality and inequality constraints on the terminal state variables. First, using a special type of state and control variations, we represent a relatively simple and self-contained method for deriving new necessary conditions in the form of Pontryagin minimum principle. We show that these results immediately yield classical Pontryagin necessary conditions for control processes governed by ordinary differential equations (with or without delay). Next, imposing suitable convexity conditions on the functions involved, we derive Mangasarian-type and Arrow-type sufficient optimality conditions.

This paper focuses on a robust semi-infinite interval-valued optimization problem with uncertain inequality constraints (RSIIVP). By employing the concept of LU-optimal solution and Extended Mangasarian-Fromovitz Constraint Qualification (EMFCQ), necessary optimality conditions are established for (RSIIVP) and then sufficient optimality conditions for (RSIIVP) are derived, by using the tools of convexity. Moreover, a Wolfe type dual problem for (RSIIVP) is formulated and usual duality results are discussed between the primal (RSIIVP) and its dual (RSIWD) problem. The presented results are demonstrated by non-trivial examples.
