Saddle Point Optimality Conditions in Fuzzy Optimization Problems

The fuzzy-valued Lagrangian function of fuzzy optimization problem via the concept of fuzzy scalar (inner) product is proposed. A solution concept of fuzzy optimization problem, which is essentially similar to the notion of Pareto solution in multiobjective optimization problems, is introduced by imposing a partial ordering on the set of all fuzzy numbers. Under these settings, the saddle point optimality conditions along with necessary and sufficient conditions for the absence of a duality gap are elicited.
