The aim of the article is to study the pseudoconvexity (pseudoconcavity) of the ratio between a quadratic function and the square of an affine function. Applying the Charnes–Cooper transformation of variables the function is transformed in a quadratic one defined on a suitable halfspace. The characterization of the pseudoconvexity of such a quadratic function allows to give necessary and sufficient conditions for the pseudoconvexity and the pseudolinearity of the ratio in terms of the initial data.

Abstract
The aim of the article is to study the pseudoconvexity (pseudoconcavity) of the ratio between a quadratic function and the square of an affine function. Applying the Charnes–Cooper transformation of variables the function is transformed in a quadratic one defined on a suitable halfspace. The characterization of the pseudoconvexity of such a quadratic function allows to give necessary and sufficient conditions for the pseudoconvexity and the pseudolinearity of the ratio in terms of the initial data.File in questo prodotto:
