Optimality Conditions and Duality for Nonsmooth Fractional Continuous-Time Problems

In this paper, we consider a class of nonsmooth fractional continuous-time problems. Optimality conditions under certain structure of generalized invexity are derived for this class. Subsequently, two parameter-free dual models are formulated. Finally weak, strong, and strict converse duality theorems are proved in the framework of generalized invexity.
