“International Workshop on Generalized Concavity, Fractional Programming and Economic Applications”
Pisa (Italy)
May 30 – June 1, 1988
The 3rd International Symposium on Generalized Convexity and Monotonicity was held at the Faculty of Economics and Commerce of the University of Pisa (Italy), from May 30 to June 1, 1988. About 70 participants from 11 different countries attended the conference.
A strong emphasis was given to applications of Generalized Convexity in Management Science and Economics, to Fractional Programming and to Duality. The proceedings of the conference have been published in a 360 page volume by Springer-Verlag.
