Abstract

In this paper, we study the minimax linear fractional programming problem on a non-empty bounded set, called problem (MLFP), and we design a branch and bound algorithm to find a globally optimal solution of (MLFP). Firstly, we convert the problem (MLFP) to a problem (EP2) that is equivalent to it. Secondly, by applying the convex relaxation technique to problem (EP2), a convex quadratic relaxation problem (CQRP) is obtained. Then, the overall framework of the algorithm is given and its convergence is proved, the worst-case iteration number is also estimated. Finally, experimental data are
listed to illustrate the effectiveness of the algorithm.
