Abstract
The notion of η-pseudolinearity is introduced. First, some characterizations of an η-pseudolinear function are obtained. Then characterizations of the solution set of an η-pseudolinear program are derived. The paper generalizes various results on pseudolinear functions and programs.
Riassunto
Il lavoro introduce la nozione di η-pseudolinearità. Dopo avere ottenuto alcune caratterizzazioni delle funzioni η-pseudolineari, si derivano caratterizzazioni dell'insieme delle soluzioni di un programma η-pseudolineare. Lo studio generalizza diversi risultati sulle funzioni e sui programmi pseudolineari.
