Abstract: In this paper, a pair of non-differentiable second-order multi-objective symmetrical dual fractional variational programs over arbitrary cones is constructed. We have introduced the concept of second-order (F, α, ρ, d)-pseudoconvexity and an example of a function which is second-order (F, α, ρ, d)-pseudoconvex but not second-order F-pseudoconvex has been constructed. Further, to relate the objective function value of primal and dual, we proved weak, strong, and converse duality theorems under second-order (F, α, ρ, d)-pseudoconvexity suppositions. Moreover, to validate the results of the weak duality theorem, an example of a multi-objective variational fractional problem and its dual model has been constructed. Several known results are also discussed as special cases.

Keywords: fractional programs; support functions; parametric approach; variational programs; (F, α, ρ, d)-pseudoconvexity.
