Abstract

In this article, we focus our attention on a nonsmooth interval-valued optimization problem and establish sufficient optimality conditions for a feasible solution to be an LU optimal solution under the invexity assumption. Appropriate duality theorems for Wolfe and Mond–Weir-type duals are presented in order to relate the LU optimal solution of primal and dual programs. Moreover, saddle-point-type optimality conditions are established in order to find relation between LU optimal solution of primal and saddle point of Lagrangian function.
