Abstract--We establish necessary and sufficient optimality conditions for quasi-convex programming. First, we treat some properties of the normal cone to the level set of a lower semicontinuous quasi-convex function defined on a Banach space. Next, we get our conditions via some variational inequalities. (~) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

We introduce two classes of discrete quasiconvex functions, called quasi M-and L-convex functions, by generalizing the concepts of M-and L-convexity due to Murota (Adv. Math. 124 (1996) 272) and (Math. Programming 83 (1998) 313). We investigate the structure of quasi Mand L-convex functions with res
For an inequality system defined by an infinite family of proper convex functions (not necessarily lower semicontinuous), we introduce some new notions of constraint qualifications. Under the new constraint qualifications, we provide necessary and/or sufficient conditions for the KKT rules to hold.
