L. Teo Consider the DC programming problem f x - g Ax where f and g are proper convex functions defined on locally convex Hausdorff topological vector spaces X and Y respectively and A is a linear operator from X to Y .By using the properties of the epigraph of the conjugate functions the optimality conditions and strong duality of Pa are obtained.

Introduction Let X and Y be real locally convex Hausdorff topological vector spaces whose respective dual spaces X and Y are endowed with the weak -topologies w X X and w Y Y . Let f X R R u x g Y R be proper convex functions and let A X Y be a linear operator such that A dom f n dom g 0. We consider the primal DC difference of convex programming problem PA Xs f x - s L1 and its associated dual problem Da inf g y - f A y y eY where f and g are the Fenchel conjugates of f and g respectively and A Y X stands for the adjoint operator where Y is the subspace of Y such that y e Y if and only if A y 2 Journal of Inequalities and Applications defined by A y y A -Ỵ is continuous on X. Note that in general YA is not the whole space Y because A is not necessarily continuous. Problems of DC programming are highly important from both viewpoints of optimization theory and applications.
