Efficient solutions and optimality conditions for vector equilibrium problems

Necessary optimality conditions for efficient solutions of unconstrained and vector equilibrium problems with equality and inequality constraints are derived. Under assumptions on generalized convexity, necessary optimality conditions for efficient solutions become sufficient optimality conditions. Note that it is not required here that the ordering cone in the objective space has a nonempty interior.     

On Efficiency Conditions for Nonsmooth Vector Equilibrium Problems with Equilibrium Constraints

In this article, necessary conditions of Fritz John type for weak efficient solutions of a nonsmooth vector equilibrium problem involving equilibrium constraints (VEPEC) in terms of the Clarke subdifferentials are established. Under constraint qualifications which are suitable for (VEPEC), necessary conditions of Kuhn-Tucker type for efficiency are derived. Under assumptions on generalized convexity of data, sufficient conditions for efficiency are developed. Some applications to vector variational inequalities and vector optimization problems with equilibrium constraints are also given.     

On Optimality Conditions for Henig Efficiency and Superefficiency in Vector Equilibrium Problems

Abstract

Necessary optimality conditions for local Henig efficient and superefficient solutions of vector equilibrium problems involving equality, inequality, and set constraints in Banach space with locally Lipschitz functions are established under a suitable constraint qualification via the Michel–Penot subdifferentials. With assumptions on generalized convexity, necessary conditions for Henig efficiency and superefficiency become sufficient ones. Some applications to vector variational inequalities and vector optimization problems are given as well.     

Generalized convexity and efficiency for non-regular multiobjective programming problems with inequality-type constraints

For multiobjective problems with inequality-type constraints the necessary conditions for efficient solutions are presented. These conditions are applied when the constraints do not necessarily satisfy any regularity assumptions, and they are based on the concept of 2-regularity introduced by Izmailov. In general, the necessary optimality conditions are not sufficient and the efficient solution set is not the same as the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker points set. So it is necessary to introduce generalized convexity notions. In the multiobjective non-regular case we give the notion of 2-KKT-pseudoinvex-II problems. This new concept of generalized convexity is both necessary and sufficient to guarantee the characterization of all efficient solutions based on the optimality conditions.

Some results of this article improve the corresponding results in literatures by lessening the assumption of convexity.

Optimality conditions for vector optimization problems with non-cone constraints in image space

ABSTRACT

In this paper, we employ the image space analysis method to investigate a vector optimization problem with non-cone constraints. First, we use the linear and nonlinear separation techniques to establish Lagrange-type sufficient and necessary optimality conditions of the given problem under convexity assumptions and generalized Slater condition. Moreover, we give some characterizations of generalized Lagrange saddle points in image space without any convexity assumptions. Finally, we derive the vectorial penalization for the vector optimization problem with non-cone constraints by a general way.     

Some kind of Pareto stationarity for multiobjective problems with equilibrium constraints

ABSTRACT

In this paper, we derive some optimality and stationarity conditions for a multiobjective problem with equilibrium constraints (MOPEC). In particular, under a generalized Guignard constraint qualification, we show that any locally Pareto optimal solution of MOPEC must satisfy the strong Pareto Kuhn-Tucker optimality conditions. We also prove that the generalized Guignard constraint qualification is the weakest constraint qualification for the strong Pareto Kuhn-Tucker optimality. Furthermore, under certain convexity or generalized convexity assumptions, we show that the strong Pareto Kuhn-Tucker optimality conditions are also sufficient for several popular locally Pareto-type optimality conditions for MOPEC.     

Weak sharp efficiency in multiobjective optimization

By using the generalized Fermat rule, the Mordukhovich subdifferential for maximum functions, the fuzzy sum rule for Fréchet subdifferentials and the sum rule for Mordukhovich subdifferentials, we establish a necessary optimality condition for the local weak sharp efficient solution of a constrained multiobjective optimization problem. Moreover, by employing the approximate projection theorem, and some appropriate convexity and affineness conditions, we also obtain some sufficient optimality conditions respectively for the local and global weak sharp efficient solutions of such a multiobjective optimization problem.     

Optimality conditions for nonsmooth semi-infinite multiobjective programming

This paper is devoted to the study of nonsmooth multiobjective semi-infinite programming problems in which the index set of the inequality constraints is an arbitrary set not necessarily finite. We introduce several kinds of constraint qualifications for these problems, and then necessary optimality conditions for weakly efficient solutions are investigated. Finally by imposing assumptions of generalized convexity we give sufficient conditions for efficient solutions.     

On optimality conditions for vector variational inequalities

Optimality conditions for weak efficient, global efficient and efficient solutions of vector variational inequalities with constraints defined by equality, cone and set constraints are derived. Under various constraint qualifications, necessary optimality conditions for weak efficient, global efficient and efficient solutions in terms of the Clarke and Michel–Penot subdifferentials are established. With assumptions on quasiconvexity of constraint functions sufficient optimality conditions are also given.     

Higher order duality in vector optimization over cones

In this paper higher order cone convex, pseudo convex, strongly pseudo convex, and quasiconvex functions are introduced. Higher order sufficient optimality conditions are given for a weak minimum, minimum, strong minimum and Benson proper minimum solution of a vector optimization problem. A higher order dual is associated and weak and strong duality results are established under these new generalized convexity assumptions.     

Scalarization and optimality conditions for vector equilibrium problems

In this paper, we investigated vector equilibrium problems and gave the scalarization results for weakly efficient solutions, Henig efficient solutions, and globally efficient solutions to the vector equilibrium problems without the convexity assumption. Using nonsmooth analysis and the scalarization results, we provided the necessary conditions for weakly efficient solutions, Henig efficient solutions, globally efficient solutions, and superefficient solutions to vector equilibrium problems. By the assumption of convexity, we gave sufficient conditions for those solutions. As applications, we gave the necessary and sufficient conditions for corresponding solutions to vector variational inequalities and vector optimization problems.     

Necessary and sufficient conditions for nonsmooth mathematical programs with equilibrium constraints

In this paper we consider a mathematical program with equilibrium constraints (MPEC) formulated as a mathematical program with complementarity constraints. Then, we derive a necessary optimality result for nonsmooth MPEC on any Asplund space. Also, under generalized convexity assumptions, we establish sufficient optimality conditions for this program in Banach spaces.     

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.     

Optimality conditions for nonsmooth mathematical programs with equilibrium constraints,using convexificators

In this paper, we deal with constraint qualifications, stationary concepts and optimality conditions for a nonsmooth mathematical program with equilibrium constraints (MPEC). The main tool in our study is the notion of convexificator. Using this notion, standard and MPEC Abadie and several other constraint qualifications are proposed and a comparison between them is presented. We also define nonsmooth stationary conditions based on the convexificators. In particular, we show that GS-stationary is the first-order optimality condition under generalized standard Abadie constraint qualification. Finally, sufficient conditions for global or local optimality are derived under some MPEC generalized convexity assumptions.
