β¦ Synopsis
For a constrained minimization problem in infinite dimensions, in particular an optimal control problem, the attainment of a minimum follows if necessary Lagrangian conditions---Karnsh-Kuhn-Tucker or equivalently Pontryagin--are solvable, provided that a suitable invex hypothesis holds. Duality results are also obtained, where part of the constraint system describes a curved (hyper-) surface, and the invex property is assumed on that surface.

In this paper the various definitions of nonsmooth invex functions are gathered in a general scheme by means of the concept of K-directional derivative. Characterizations of nonsmooth K-invexity are derived as well as results concerning constrained optimization without any assumption of convexity of
