A necessary condition - the Principle of Fermat-Lagrange - is offered for mixed smooth-convexoptimization problems. This generalizes and unifies most of the known necessary conditions forconcrete finite and infinite dimensional optimization problems of interest. The new idea in comparisonwith...

We study the existence problem of a zero point of a function defined on a finite set of elements of the integer lattice of the n-dimensional Euclidean space. It is assumed that the set is integrally convex, which implies that the convex hull of the set can be subdivided in simplices such that...
