Abstract

In a recent paper on multiobjective maximization problems (Ref. 1), the authors use explicit quasiconcavity of the objective functions to prove a characterization of weakly efficient solutions and local-global properties. We provide results which are stronger in part and are derived with shorter proofs. We also present additional results.
