Generalized Convex Multiplicative Programming via Quasiconcave Minimization

, , and

BibTeX reference

We present a new method for minimizing the sum of a convex function and a product of k nonnegative convex functions over a convex set. This problem is reduced to a k-dimensional quasiconcave minimization problem which is solved by a conical branch-and-bound algorithm. Comparative computational results are provided on test problems from the literature.
