Abstract
The formalism of Dubovitskii and Milyutin is very attractive but, up to now, it could not be applied to optimization problems involving equality and operator constraints. In the present paper, the formalism of Dubovitskii and Milyutin is extended to this more general situation. Theorem 2.1, the main result of the paper, is applied to the standard mathematical programming problem in normed linear space and an abstract maximum principle is obtained.
