Sufficient efficiency conditions for vector ratio problem on the second-order jet bundle (Q417182): Difference between revisions

Summary: Motivated by its possible applications in mechanics and mechanical engineering, in our previous published work \textit{A. Pitea} and \textit{M. Postolache} [``Minimization of vectors of curvilinear functionals on the second order jet bundle. Necessary conditions,'' Optimization Letters, vol. 6, no. 3, p. 459--470, 2011], we initiated an optimization theory for second-order jet bundles. We considered the problem of minimization of vectors of curvilinear functionals (well known as mechanical work), thought as multitime multiobjective variational problems, subject to PDE and/or PDI constraints. Within this framework, we introduced necessary optimality conditions. As natural continuation of these results, the present work introduces a study of sufficient efficiency conditions.
