초록

Bilevel programming problem is a two-stage optimization problem where the constraint region of the first level problem is implicitly determined by another optimization problem. In this paper we consider the bilevel quadratic/linear fractional programming problem in which the objective function of the first level is quasiconcave, the objective function of the second level is linear fractional and the feasible region is a convex polyhedron. Considering the relationship between feasible solutions to the problem and bases of the coefficient submatrix associated to variables of the second level, an enumerative algorithm is proposed which finds a global optimum to the problem.
