Abstract: Single-ratio and multi-ratio fractional programs in applications are often generalized convex programs. We begin with a survey of applications of single-ratio fractional programs, min-max fractional programs and sum-of-ratios fractional programs. Given the limited advances for the latter class of problems, we focus on an analysis of min-max fractional programs. A parametric approach is employed to develop both theoretical and algorithmic results.

Keywords: Single-ratio fractional programs; applications of fractional programs to management science and engineering; generalized fractional programs; min-max fractional programs; parametric approach; sum-of-ratios fractional programs (search for similar items in EconPapers)
