In this paper we present first and second order sufficient conditions for strict local minima of orders 1 and 2 to vector optimization problems with an arbitrary feasible set and a twice directionally differentiable objective function. With this aim, the notion of support function to a vector proble

## Abstract It has been common practice to find controls satisfying only necessary conditions for optimality, and then to use these controls assuming that they are (locally) optimal. However, sufficient conditions need to be used to ascertain that the control rule is optimal. Second order sufficien
This paper presents a new approach to the sufficient conditions of nonlinear programming. Main result is a sufficient condition for the global optimality of a Kuhn-Tucker point. This condition can be verified constructively, using a novel convexity test based on interval analysis, and is guaranteed
