Pareto Solutions of Polyhedral-valued Vector Optimization Problems in Banach Spaces

In general Banach spaces, we consider a vector optimization problem (SVOP) in which the objective is a set-valued mapping whose graph is the union of finitely many polyhedra. We establish some results on structure and connectedness of the weak Pareto solution set, Pareto solution set, weak Pareto optimal value set and Pareto optimal value set of (SVOP). In particular, we improve and generalize Arrow, Barankin and Blackwell’s classical results on linear vector optimization problems in Euclidean spaces.     

Lagrange Multiplier Rules for Weak Approximate Pareto Solutions of Constrained Vector Optimization Problems in Hilbert Spaces

In the Hilbert space case, in terms of proximal normal cone and proximal coderivative, we establish a Lagrange multiplier rule for weak approximate Pareto solutions of constrained vector optimization problems. In this case, our Lagrange multiplier rule improves the main result on vector optimization in Zheng and Ng (SIAM J. Optim. 21: 886–911, 2011). We also introduce a notion of a fuzzy proximal Lagrange point and prove that each Pareto (or weak Pareto) solution is a fuzzy proximal Lagrange point.

针对均衡约束数学规划模型难以满足约束规范及难于求解的问题,基于Mond和Weir提出的标准非线性规划的对偶形式,利用其S稳定性,建立了均衡约束数学规划问题的一类广义Mond-Weir型对偶,从而为求解均衡约束优化问题提供了一种新的方法.在Hanson-Mond广义凸性条件下,利用次线性函数,分别提出了弱对偶性、强对偶性和严格逆对偶性定理,并给出了相应证明.该对偶化方法的推广为研究均衡约束数学规划问题的解提供了理论依据.     

Lipschitz behavior of solutions to nonconvex semi-infinite vector optimization problems

This paper is devoted to developing new applications from the limiting subdifferential in nonsmooth optimization and variational analysis to the study of the Lipschitz behavior of the Pareto solution maps in parametric nonconvex semi-infinite vector optimization problems (SIVO for brevity). We establish sufficient conditions for the Aubin Lipschitz-like property of the Pareto solution maps of SIVO under perturbations of both the objective function and constraints.     

Constraint Qualifications for Nonsmooth Mathematical Programs with Equilibrium Constraints

We study nonsmooth mathematical programs with equilibrium constraints. First we consider a general disjunctive program which embeds a large class of problems with equilibrium constraints. Then, we establish several constraint qualifications for these optimization problems. In particular, we generalize the Abadie and Guignard-type constraint qualifications. Subsequently, we specialize these results to mathematical program with equilibrium constraints. In our investigation, we show that a local minimum results in a so-called M-stationary point under a very weak constraint qualification.      

Characterizations of solution sets for parametric multiobjective optimization problems

In this article, we investigate the nonemptiness and compactness of the weak Pareto optimal solution set of a multiobjective optimization problem with functional constraints via asymptotic analysis. We then employ the obtained results to derive the necessary and sufficient conditions of the weak Pareto optimal solution set of a parametric multiobjective optimization problem. Our results improve and generalize some known results.

Examples are given to illustrate the results obtained.

In this paper, we first establish the existence theorems of the solution of hybrid inclusion and disclusion systems, from which we study mixed types of systems of generalized quasivariational inclusion and disclusion problems and systems of generalized vector quasiequilibrium problems. Some applications of existence theorems to feasible points for various mathematical programs with variational constraints or equilibrium constraints, system of vector saddle point and system of minimax theorem are also given.

In this paper, we prove the existence theorems of two types of systems of variational inclusions problem. From these existence results, we establish Ekeland’s variational principle on topological vector space, existence theorems of common fixed point, existence theorems for the semi-infinite problems, mathematical programs with fixed points and equilibrium constraints, and vector mathematical programs with variational inclusions constraints.     

Lower semi-continuity of the Pareto solution map in quasiconvex semi-infinite vector optimization

This paper is concerned with the lower semi-continuity of the efficient (Pareto) solution map for the perturbed quasiconvex semi-infinite vector optimization problem (QCSVO). We establish sufficient conditions for the lower semi-continuous property of the efficient solution map of (QCSVO) under functional perturbations of both the objective function and the constraints. Examples are designed to analyze the obtained results.     

Semicontinuity and convergence for vector optimization problems with approximate equilibrium constraints

This paper mainly intends to present some semicontinuity and convergence results for perturbed vector optimization problems with approximate equilibrium constraints. We establish the lower semicontinuity of the efficient solution mapping for the vector optimization problem with perturbations of both the objective function and the constraint set. The constraint set is the set of approximate weak efficient solutions of the vector equilibrium problem. Moreover, upper Painlevé–Kuratowski convergence results of the weak efficient solution mapping are showed. Finally, some applications to the optimization problems with approximate vector variational inequality constraints and the traffic network equilibrium problems are also given. Our main results are different from the ones in the literature.     

A Proximal-Type Method for Convex Vector Optimization Problem in Banach Spaces

In this paper, we consider a convex vector optimization problem of finding weak Pareto optimal solutions from a uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach space to a real Banach space, with respect to the partial order induced by a closed, convex, and pointed cone with a nonempty interior. We introduce a vector-valued proximal-type method based on the Lyapunov functional, carry out convergent analysis on this method, and prove that any sequence generated by the method weakly converges to a weak Pareto optimal solution of the vector optimization problem under some mild conditions. Our results improve and generalize some known results.

UNIFORM APPROXIMATION OF A MULTIOBJECTIVE OPTIMIZATION SEQUENCE

In this paper the Pareto efficiency of a uniformly convergent multiobjective optimization sequence is studied. We obtain some relation between the Pareto efficient solutions of a given multiobjective optimization problem and those of its uniformly convergent optimization sequence and also some relation between the weak Pareto efficient solutions of the same optimization problem and those of its uniformly convergent optimization sequence. Besides, under a compact convex assumption for constraints set and a certain convex assumption for both objective and constraint functions, we also get some sufficient and necessary conditions that the limit of solutions of a uniformly convergent multiobjective optimization sequence is the solution of a given multiobjective optimization problem.

In general normed spaces,we consider a multiobjective piecewise linear optimization problem with the ordering cone being convex and having a nonempty interior.We establish that the weak Pareto optimal solution set of such a problem is the union of finitely many polyhedra and that this set is also arcwise connected under the cone convexity assumption of the objective function.Moreover,we provide necessary and suffcient conditions about the existence of weak(sharp) Pareto solutions.     

System of vector quasi-variational inclusions with some applications

In this paper, we consider systems of vector quasi-variational inclusions which include systems of vector quasi-equilibrium problems for multivalued maps, systems of vector optimization problems and several other systems as special cases. We establish existence results for solutions of these systems. As applications of our results, we derive the existence results for solutions of system vector optimization problems, mathematical programs with systems of vector variational inclusion constraints and bilevel problems. Another application of our results provides the common fixed point theorem for a family of lower semicontinuous multivalued maps. Further applications of our results for existence of solutions of systems of vector quasi-variational inclusions are given to prove the existence of solutions of systems of Minty type and Stampacchia type generalized implicit quasi-variational inequalities. The results of this paper can be seen as extensions and generalizations of several known results in the literature.     

On Approximately Star-Shaped Functions and Approximate Vector Variational Inequalities

In this paper, we consider a vector optimization problem involving approximately star-shaped functions. We formulate approximate vector variational inequalities in terms of Fréchet subdifferentials and solve the vector optimization problem. Under the assumptions of approximately straight functions, we establish necessary and sufficient conditions for a solution of approximate vector variational inequality to be an approximate efficient solution of the vector optimization problem. We also consider the corresponding weak versions of the approximate vector variational inequalities and establish various results for approximate weak efficient solutions.     

Optimality conditions for the Henig efficient solution of vector equilibrium problems with constraints

The purpose of this paper is to establish optimality conditions for vector equilibrium problems with constraints. By using the separation of convex sets, we obtain the necessary and sufficient conditions for the Henig efficient solution and the superefficient solution to the vector equilibrium problem with constraints. As applications of our results, we derive some optimality conditions to the vector variational inequality problem and the vector optimization problem with constraints.     

ɛ-Subdifferentials of Set-valued Maps and ɛ-Weak Pareto Optimality for Multiobjective Optimization

In this paper we consider vector optimization problems where objective and constraints are set-valued maps. Optimality conditions in terms of Lagrange-multipliers for an ɛ-weak Pareto minimal point are established in the general case and in the case with nearly subconvexlike data. A comparison with existing results is also given. Our method used a special scalarization function, introduced in optimization by Hiriart-Urruty. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of an ɛ-weak Pareto minimal point are obtained. The relation between the set of all ɛ-weak Pareto minimal points and the set of all weak Pareto minimal points is established. The ɛ-subdifferential formula of the sum of two convex functions is also extended to set-valued maps via well known results of scalar optimization. This result is applied to obtain the Karush–Kuhn–Tucker necessary conditions, for ɛ-weak Pareto minimal points
