Contractibility and Connectedness of Efficient Point Sets

Using the technique of space theory and set-valued analysis, we establish contractibility results for efficient point sets in a locally convex space and a path connectedness result for a positive proper efficient point set in a reflexive space. We also prove a connectedness result for a positive proper efficient point set in a locally convex space; as an application, we give a connectedness result for an efficient solution set in a locally convex space.
