The generalized contingent epiderivative of set-valued maps is introduced in this paper and its relationship to the contingent epiderivative is investigated. A unified necessary and sufficient optimality condition is derived in terms of the generalized contingent epiderivative. The existence of...

In this paper, we are concerned with a set-valued fractional extremal programming problem under inclusion constraints. Our approach consists of using the extremal principle (an approach initiated by Mordukhovich, which does not involve any convex approximations and convex separation arguments)...

In this paper, we propose the concept of a second-order composed contingent derivative for set-valued maps, discuss its relationship to the second-order contingent derivative and investigate some of its special properties. By virtue of the second-order composed contingent derivative, we extend...

In this paper, we deal with the extended well-posedness and strongly extended well-posedness of set-valued optimization problems. These two concepts are generalizations of the extended well-posedness of real-valued optimization probems defined by Zolezzi. We obtain some criteria and...

A a set-valued optimization problem min C F(x), x ∈X 0 , is considered, where X 0 ⊂ X, X and Y are normed spaces, F: X 0 ⊂ Y is a set-valued function and C ⊂ Y is a closed cone. The solutions of the set-valued problem are defined as pairs (x 0 ,y 0 ), y 0 ∈F(x 0 ), and are called...

In this paper we present new concepts of efficiency for uncertain multi-objective optimization problems. We analyze the connection between the concept of minmax robust efficiency presented by Ehrgott et al. (Eur J Oper Res, <CitationRef CitationID="CR14">2014</CitationRef>, doi:<ExternalRef> <RefSource>10.1016/j.ejor.2014.03.013</RefSource> <RefTarget Address="10.1016/j.ejor.2014.03.013" TargetType="DOI"/> </ExternalRef>) and the upper set less order...</refsource></externalref></citationref>

In this paper, we first derive several characterizations of the nonemptiness and compactness for the solution set of a convex scalar set-valued optimization problem (with or without cone constraints) in which the decision space is finite-dimensional. The characterizations are expressed in terms...
