Abstract: This paper is a follow-up to a previous work where we developed a new geometric approach to sensitivity analysis. In this paper, we present a simple method to determine whether a given multiobjective linear programming problem (MOLPP) has an ideal solution (i.e. all of the objective functions are optimised simultaneously) without having to calculate the optimal value of each objective function. First, we divide the space of linear forms into a finite number of sets based on a fixed convex polygonal subset of mathbbR2 using an equivalency relationship. All the elements from a given equivalency class have the same optimal solution. Next, we characterize the equivalence classes of the quotient set using a geometric approach to sensitivity analysis. Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the method.
