Summary

In this paper one generalizes various types of constrained extremism, keeping the Lagrange or Kuhn-Tucker multipliers rule. The context which supports this development is the nonholonomic optimization theory which requires a holonomic or nonholonomic objective function subject to nonholonomic or holonomic constraints. We refined such a problem using two new ideas: the replacement of the point or velocity constraints by a curve selector, and the geometrical interpretation of the Lagrange and Kuhn-Tucker parameters. The classical optimization theory is recovered as a particular case of extremism constrained by a curve selector.
