A number of Kuhn-Tucker type sufficient optimality criteria for a class of variational problems under weaker invexity assumptions are presented. As an application of these optimality results, various Mond-Weir type duality results are proved under a variety of generalised invexity assumptions. These results generalise many well-known duality results of variational problems and also give a dynamic analogue of certain corresponding (static) results relating to duality with generalised invexity in mathematical programming.
