Moreover, sufficient optimality conditions and Mond-Weir type duality results, associated with the multiobjective variational control problem, are established under aforesaid assumptions. Keywords: control problem; α-V-univexity; efficiency; sufficiency; duality 1. Introduction Multiobjective optimization deals with solving problems having several conflicting objectives simultaneously, while the control problem consists in transferring the state variable from an initial state to a final state so as to optimize a given functional, subject to constraints on the control and state variables. Thus, multiobjective control problem is a wide field of research having extensive applications in real world situations, ranging from engineering to economics, and many more. For example, multiobjective control problems are used in flight control design, in the control of space structures, in industrial process control and other diverse fields. Convexity plays a significant role in optimization as it gives global validity to propositions otherwise only locally true. However, in the real world of mathematical and economic models, convexity appears to be a restrictive condition. As a result, nonconvex optimization problems have been studied by various authors. Naniewicz and Puchala (2012) studied a nonconvex optimization problem ∗ The research of the second author has been supported by the DST, New Delhi, India through Grant No.: SR/FTP/MS-007/2011. † Submitted: April 2014; Accepted: August 2014 404 S. SHARMA, A. JAYSWAL, S. CHOUDHURY in the case when the functional to be minimized has integrand expressed as a minimum of two quadratic functions by constructing an appropriate minimizing sequence. Tabor and Tabor (2012) showed that the Takagi class can serve as an important source of examples and counterexamples for paraconvex and semiconvex functions. By similar motivation, several researchers have generalized the concept of convexity. Firstly, Hanson (1981) introduced the concept of invexity to extend the validity of the sufficiency of the Kuhn-Tucker conditions. Mond and Smart (1988) obtained duality results for a control problem using invexity and showed that for invex functions, the necessary conditions are also sufficient. Bhatia and Kumar (1995) introduced multiobjective control problems and proved duality results under generalized ρ-invexity assumptions. Nahak and Nanda (1997, 2007) further extended this concept by proving duality results for multiobjective variational control problems, under the assumption of (F, ρ)-convexity and Vinvexity, respectively. Gulati, Husain and Ahmed (2005) derived optimality conditions and duality results for multiobjective control problems involving generalized convexity. Also, Ahmad and Gulati (2005) proved results for mixed type dual for multiobjective variational problems under generalized (F, ρ)-convexity. Later, Ahmad and Sharma (2010) extended the notion of generalized (F, α, ρ, θ)-V-convex functions to variational control problems. Recently, Kailey and Gupta (2013) further extended the concept of generalized (F, α, ρ, d)-convexity and proved duality results for a class of symmetric non-differentiable multiobjective fractional variational problems. The concept of univex functions as a generalization of invex functions was introduced by Bector, Suneja and Gupta (1992). Later on, many authors (AranaJiménez, Ruiz-Garzón, Rufián-Lizana and Osuna-Gómez, 2012; Chen, 2002; de Oliveira, Silva and Rojas-Medar, 2009; Khazafi and Rueda, 2009; Khazafi, Rueda and Enflo, 2010; Zhian and Qingkai, 2001) extended the concept of generalized convexity. Being inspired by Bector, Suneja and Gupta (1992), Noor (2004), Nahak and Nanda (1997, 2007), and Preda, Stancu-Minasian, Beldiman and Stancu (2009), we introduce the concept of α-V-univex functions for a multiobjective variational control problem and obtain sufficient optimality conditions and duality results. The rest of the paper is organized as follows: In Section 2, we introduce the definitions of α-V-univex and generalized α-V-univex functions, and recall a set of necessary optimality conditions. In Section 3, we prove the sufficient optimality conditions, and in Section 4, we present the Mond-Weir type multiobjective variational control dual problem and derive weak and strong duality results. Finally, we conclude our paper in Section 5. 2. Notations and preliminaries Let Rn denote the n-dimensional Euclidean space. Let y, z ∈ Rn , we denote: y ≦ z ⇔ yi ≦ zi , i = 1, 2, . . . , n; y ≤ z ⇔ y ≦ z and y 6= z; y < z ⇔ yi < zi , i = Generalized α-V-univex functions for multiobjective variational control problems 405 1, 2, . . . , n. Let I = [a, b] be a real interval. Let fi : I × Rn × Rn × Rm × Rm → R, i ∈ P = {1, 2, . . . , p}, gj : I × Rn × Rn × Rm × Rm → R, j ∈ M = {1, 2, . . . , m} and hk : I × Rn × Rn × Rm × Rm → R, k ∈ N = {1, 2, . . . , n} be continuously differentiable functions. Consider the function f (t, x(t), ẋ(t), u(t), u̇(t)), where t is the independent variable, x : I → Rn is the state variable and u : I → Rm is the control variable. u(t) is related to x(t) via the state equation h(t, x(t), ẋ(t), u(t), u̇(t)) = 0, where the dot denotes the derivative with respect to t. fix , fiẋ , fiu and fiu̇ denote the partial derivatives of fi with respect to x, ẋ, u and u̇, respectively. For instance, ∂fi ∂fi ∂fi ∂fi ∂fi ∂fi , ,..., , fiẋ = , ,..., . fix = ∂x1 ∂x2 ∂xn ∂ ẋ1 ∂ ẋ2 ∂ ẋn Similarly, gjx , gj ẋ , gju , gj u̇ and hkx , hkẋ , hku , hku̇ can be defined. For notational convenience, we use x, ẋ, u, u̇ in place of x(t), ẋ(t), u(t), u̇(t), respectively. Let the differentiation operator D be given by Z t z = Dx ⇔ x(t) = γ + z(s)ds, a where γ is a given boundary value. Therefore, D = d/dt except at discontinuities. Let X denote the space of all piecewise smooth functions x : I 7→ Rn with norm kxk = kxk∞ + kDxk∞ and Y denote the space of all piecewise smooth functions u : I 7→ Rm with norm kuk∞ . In this paper, we consider the following multiobjective variational control problem: Z Z b (CP) Minimize Z subject to b f (t, x, ẋ, u, u̇)dt = ( a b f2 (t, x, ẋ, u, u̇)dt, . . . , a f1 (t, x, ẋ, u, u̇)dt, Za b fp (t, x, ẋ, u, u̇)dt) a x(a) = γ, x(b) = δ, g(t, x, ẋ, u, u̇) ≦ 0, t ∈ I, (1) h(t, x, ẋ, u, u̇) = 0, t ∈ I. (2) We denote the set of all feasible solutions to (CP) by X ◦ , i.e., X ◦ = {(x, u) ∈ (X, Y ) : x(a) = γ, x(b) = δ, g(t, x, ẋ, u, u̇) ≦ 0, h(t, x, ẋ, u, u̇) = 0}.

Now, we present the following example which is α-V-univex but not V -invex. Example 1 Let I = [0, 1] and X = Y = C([0, 1], R+ ). We define the function ψ : I × X × X × Y × Y 7→ R2 as ψ(t, x, ẋ, u, u̇) = (−4(x2 (t) + x(t) + u(t)), −x2 (t) − 2x(t) − 3u(t)). Further, let φ◦ : R 7→ R be given as φ◦ (a) = −2a.

Then, 0 ψ(t, x, ẋ, u, u̇)dt is α-Vunivex at (x̄, ū) = (0, 0) but not V -invex for the same functions α, η and ξ as can be seen below. α1 = Generalized α-V-univex functions for multiobjective variational control problems 407 Explanation: Firstly, we have to show that Z 1 ˙ ū, ū)]dt ˙ b◦ φ◦ [ψ1 (t, x, ẋ, u, u̇) − ψ1 (t, x̄, x̄, 0 ≧ Z 1 ˙ ū, ū) ˙ − Dψ1ẋ (t, x̄, x̄, ˙ ū, ū))η ˙ α1 [(ψ1x (t, x̄, x̄, 0 ˙ ū, ū) ˙ − Dψ1u̇ (t, x̄, x̄, ˙ ū, ū))ξ]dt, ˙ + (ψ1u (t, x̄, x̄, at (x̄, ū) = (0, 0).

This completes the proof. ◦ ◦ Theorem 5 (Strong duality) Let (x , u ) be an efficient solution to (CP) at which a constraint qualification is satisfied. Then there exist piecewise smooth λ ∈ Rp , µ : I 7→ Rm and ν : I 7→ Rn such that (x◦ , u◦ , λ, µ(t), ν(t)) is feasible for (MD). Furthermore, if weak duality (Theorem 4) holds between (CP) and (MD), then (x◦ , u◦ , λ, µ(t), ν(t)) is an efficient solution of the problem (MD). Proof. Since (x◦ , u◦ ) is an efficient solution for (CP), then from Lemma 2, (x◦ , u◦ ) solves (CP)s . As (x◦ , u◦ ) satisfies the constraint qualification for (CP)s , it follows from Lemma 1 that there exist piecewise smooth λ̄ ∈ Rp−1 , µ̄ : I 7→ Rm and ν̄ : I 7→ Rn such that for all t ∈ I, fkx (t, x , x˙◦ , u◦ , u˙◦ ) + ◦ p X λ̄i fix (t, x◦ , x˙◦ , u◦ , u˙◦ ) i=1 i6=k + X µ̄j gjx (t, x◦ , x˙◦ , u◦ , u˙◦ ) + j∈M X ν̄k hkx (t, x◦ , x˙◦ , u◦ , u˙◦ ) k∈N h = D fkẋ (t, x◦ , x˙◦ , u◦ , u˙◦ ) + p X λ̄i fiẋ (t, x◦ , x˙◦ , u◦ , u˙◦ ) i=1 i6=k + X µ̄j gj ẋ (t, x◦ , x˙◦ , u◦ , u˙◦ ) + j∈M X i ν̄k hkẋ (t, x◦ , x˙◦ , u◦ , u˙◦ ) , X ν̄k hku (t, x◦ , x˙◦ , u◦ , u˙◦ ) k∈N p X fku (t, x◦ , x˙◦ , u◦ , u˙◦ ) + λ̄i fiu (t, x◦ , x˙◦ , u◦ , u˙◦ ) i=1 i6=k + X µ̄j gju (t, x◦ , x˙◦ , u◦ , u˙◦ ) + j∈M h k∈N = D fku̇ (t, x◦ , x˙◦ , u◦ , u˙◦ ) + p X λ̄i fiu̇ (t, x◦ , x˙◦ , u◦ , u˙◦ ) i=1 i6=k + X µ̄j gj u̇ (t, x◦ , x˙◦ , u◦ , u˙◦ ) + j∈M Z b X a j∈M µ̄ ≥ 0. µ̄j gj (t, x◦ , x˙◦ , u◦ , u˙◦ )dt = 0, X k∈N i ν̄k hku̇ (t, x◦ , x˙◦ , u◦ , u˙◦ ) , 418 S.

Therefore (x◦ , u◦ , λ, µ(t), ν(t)) k∈N is a feasible solution for (MD). Moreover, if we assume that (x◦ , u◦ , λ, µ(t), ν(t)) is not an efficient solution to (MD), then there exists a feasible solution (x, u, λ◦ , µ◦ , ν ◦ ) to (MD) such that Z b f (t, x, ẋ, u, u̇)dt ≥ a Z b f (t, x◦ , x˙◦ , u◦ , u˙◦ )dt, a which contradicts the weak duality Theorem 4. Hence, (x◦ , u◦ , λ, µ(t), ν(t)) is an efficient solution to (MD). 5. Conclusion In this paper, we have considered a multiobjective variational control problem and its Mond-Weir type dual problem. Using the concept of efficiency, weak and strong duality theorems have been proved under the assumptions of generalized α-V-univexity. There is a rich scope to extend these notions to the class of nondifferentiable multiobjective variational problems. This will orient the future research of the authors.
