Solving linear fractional bilevel programs

In this paper, we prove that an optimal solution to the linear fractional bilevel programming problem occurs at a boundary feasible extreme point. Hence, the Kth-best algorithm can be proposed to solve the problem. This property also applies to quasiconcave bilevel problems provided that the first level objective function is explicitly quasimonotonic. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
