Abstract
In this paper, we establish a strong duality theorem for a Mond-Weir type multiobjective higher order nondifferentiable symmetric dual programs. Our work relaxes the hypotheses used to prove the strong duality result (by omitting one of the condition (hypothesis (IV)), Theorem 2.1) in the recent paper (Yang et al. J. Ind. Manag. Optim. 9, 525–530, (2013)).
