Multi-ratio fractional programming - a survey. (English) Zbl 0645.90085
Optimization, parallel processing and applications. Proc. Conf. Oper. Res., Oberwolfach/FRG 1987, Workshop Adv. Comput. Tech. Parallel Process. Optimization, Karlsruhe/FRG 1987, Lect. Notes Econ. Math. Syst. 304, 57-66 (1988).

Nonlinear programming problems are considered where the objective function involves several ratios. We review recent results concerning three classes of multi-ratio fractional programs: 1) maximization of a sum of ratios, 2) maximization of the smallest of several ratios, and 3) multiobjective fractional programs. In addition to these results open problems are addressed as well.
