AN ECONOMIC INTERPRETATION OF DUALITY IN LINEAR PROGRAMMING.

Abstract

The paper develops new duality relations in linear programming, which give new economic interpretations to the dual problem. These duality relations are part of a new closed-form solution to an economically interesting class of linear programming problems. A generalization of these results to geometric programming is announced, and potential extensions to integer programming as well as potential applications to stochastic programming are indicated.
