Generalized Convex Duality and its Economic Applicatons

  • Chapter
Handbook of Generalized Convexity and Generalized Monotonicity

Part of the book series: Nonconvex Optimization and Its Applications ((NOIA,volume 76))

Abstract

This article presents an approach to generalized convex duality theory based on Fenchel-Moreau conjugations; in particular, it discusses quasiconvex conjugation and duality in detail. It also describes the related topic of microeconomics duality and analyzes the monotonicity of demand functions.
