In this paper, an algorithm for fractional programming with nonlinear as well as linear terms in the numerator and denominator is presented. But the algorithm is based on a theorem by Jagannathan Jagannathy, R. 1966.
Abstract
The main purpose of this paper is to delineate an algorithm for fractional programming with nonlinear as well as linear terms in the numerator and denominator. The algorithm presented is based on a theorem by Jagannathan Jagannathan, R. 1966. On some properties of programming problems in parametric form pertaining to fractional programming. Management Sci.12 609--615. concerning the relationship between fractional and parametric programming. This theorem is restated and proved in a somewhat simpler way. Finally, it is shown how the given algorithm can be related to the method of Isbell and Marlow Isbell, J. R., W. H. Marlow. 1956. Attrition games. Naval Res. Logist. Quart.3 71--93. for linear fractional programming and to the quadratic parametric approach by Ritter Ritter, K. 1962. Ein Verfahren zur Losung parameterabhangiger, nichtlinearer Maximum-Probleme. Unternehmensforschung, Band 6, S. 149--166.. The Appendix contains a numerical example.

The Direct Power of Adjacent Vertex Programming Methods

B. Martos
- 01 Nov 1965 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the power of adjacent vertex methods in solving non-linear programming problems is investigated, restricted to variables and objective functions which are continuous and exclude any transformation or approximation of the original system.
