Duality for max-separable problems

Abstract

In this paper we propose a general duality theory for a class of so called ‘max-separable’ optimization problems. In such problems functions h:R k → R of the form h(x 1 , . . . , x k ) = max j h j (x j ), occur both as objective functions and as constraint functions (h j are assumed to be strictly increasing functions of one variable). As a result we obtain pairs of max-separable optimization problems, which possess both weak and strong duality property without a duality gap. Copyright Springer-Verlag 2012
