Abstract
This paper presents a unified theory on solvability of certain general systems of inequalities involving functions expressible as the pointw ise infimum of convex functions. The approach used to develop these so lvability theorems relies on Minkowski duality. Extensions of Farkas' lemma and other solvability theorems are developed, both with and with out a regularity condition, with applications to optimization. (C) 199 5 Academic Press, Inc.
