  "abstract": "In this note, we remark, with sufficient mathematical rigor, that many weak generalizations of the usual minimum available in the literature are not true generalizations. Motivated by the Ekeland Variational Principle, we provide, first time, the criteria for weaker generalizations of the usual minimum. Further, we show that the quasi efficiency, recently used in Bhatia et al. (Optim. Lett. 7, 127-135 (2013)) and introduced in Gupta et al. ( Bull. Aust. Math. Soc. 74, 207-218 (2006)) is not a true generalization of the usual efficiency. Since the former paper relies heavily on the results of later one, so we discuss the later paper. We show that the necessary optimality condition is a consequence of the local Lipschitzness and sufficiency result is trivial in the later paper. Consequently, the duality results of the same paper are also inconsistent.",
