Abstract The purpose of this note is to show how Leitmann’s equivalent problem approach ties in with the classical notions of the Calculus of Variations, and how it can be exploited to give a rapid and elegant approach to Weierstrass’ theory of sufficient conditions. Both fixed and free endpoint conditions are considered.
