On a Classification Scheme for Geometric Programming and Complementarity Theorems.

Abstract

A classification theorem for geometric programming is given by using the duality results of Duffin-Peterson-Zener and two properties of a given pair of dual geometric programming problems having subconsistent primal: (1) if the subinfimum is 0, then the dual is inconsistent and (2) if the subinfimum is + infinity then the dual is consistent and unbounded. While (1) and (2) may be derived as corollaries to the Duffin-Peterson-Zener theorems, the authors derivation leads to new complementarity theorems for subconsistent (not necessarily consistent) primal problems.
