Cone-Henig Subdifferentials of Set-Valued Maps in Locally Convex Spaces.

In locally convex spaces, the concepts of cone-Henig subgradient and cone-Henig subdifferential for the set-valued mapping are introduced through the linear functionals. The theorems of existence for Henig efficient point and cone-Henig subdifferential are proposed, and the sufficient and necessary condition for a linear functional being a cone-Henig subgradient is established

First order optimality conditions in set-valued optimization

A a set-valued optimization problem minC F(x), x 2 X0, is considered, where X0 X, X and Y are Banach spaces, F : X0 Y is a set-valued function and C Y is a closed cone. The solutions of the set-valued problem are defined as pairs (x0, y0), y0 2 F(x0), and are called minimizers. In particular the notions of w-minimizer (weakly efficient points), p-minimizer (properly efficient points) and i-minimizer (isolated minimizers) are introduced and their characterization in terms of the so called oriented distance is given. The relation between p-minimizers and i-minimizers under Lipschitz type conditions is investigated. The main purpose of the paper is to derive first order conditions, that is conditions in terms of suitable first order derivatives of F, for a pair (x0, y0), where x0 2 X0, y0 2 F(x0), to be a solution of this problem. We define and apply for this purpose the directional Dini derivative. Necessary conditions and sufficient conditions a pair (x0, y0) to be a w-minimizer, and similarly to be a i-minimizer are obtained. The role of the i-minimizers, which seems to be a new concept in set-valued optimization, is underlined. For the case of w-minimizers some comparison with existing results is done. Key words: Vector optimization, Set-valued optimization, First-order optimality conditions.

Set optimization - a rather short introduction

Recent developments in set optimization are surveyed and extended including various set relations as well as fundamental constructions of a convex analysis for set- and vector-valued functions, and duality for set optimization problems. Extensive sections with bibliographical comments summarize the state of the art. Applications to vector optimization and financial risk measures are discussed along with algorithmic approaches to set optimization problems

Quelques thèmes en l'analyse variationnelle et optimisation

In this thesis, we first study the theory of [gamma]-limits. Besides some basic properties of [gamma]-limits,expressions of sequential [gamma]-limits generalizing classical results of Greco are presented. These limits also give us a clue to a unified classification of derivatives and tangent cones. Next, we develop an approach to generalized differentiation theory. This allows us to deal with several generalized derivatives of set-valued maps defined directly in primal spaces, such as variational sets, radial sets, radial derivatives, Studniarski derivatives. Finally, we study calculus rules of these derivatives and applications related to optimality conditions and sensitivity analysis.Dans cette thèse, j’étudie d’abord la théorie des [gamma]-limites. En dehors de quelques propriétés fondamentales des [gamma]-limites, les expressions de [gamma]-limites séquentielles généralisant des résultats de Greco sont présentées. En outre, ces limites nous donnent aussi une idée d’une classification unifiée de la tangence et la différentiation généralisée. Ensuite, je développe une approche des théories de la différentiation généralisée. Cela permet de traiter plusieurs dérivées généralisées des multi-applications définies directement dans l’espace primal, tels que des ensembles variationnels,des ensembles radiaux, des dérivées radiales, des dérivées de Studniarski. Finalement, j’étudie les règles de calcul de ces dérivées et les applications liées aux conditions d’optimalité et à l’analyse de sensibilité
