In this work we provide a characterization of C 1,1 functions on Rn (that is, differentiable with locally Lipschitz partial derivatives) by means of second directional divided differences. In particular, we prove that the class of C 1,1 functions is equivalent to the class of functions with...

For a Fritz John type vector optimization problem with C0,1 data we define different type of solutions, give their scalar characterizations applying the so called oriented distance, and give necessary and sufficient first order optimality conditions in terms of the Dini derivative. While...
