This paper aims at combining variable ordering structures with set relations in set optimization, which have been defined using the constant ordering cone before. Since the purpose is to connect these two important approaches in set optimization, we do not restrict our considerations to one certain relation. Conversely, we provide the reader with many new … Read more
The article describes approximation technique for solving multiobjective stochastic optimization problems. As a generalized model of a stochastic system to be optimized a vector “input — random output” system is used. Random outputs are converted into a vector of deterministic performance/risk indicators. The problem is to find those inputs that correspond to Pareto-optimal values of … Read more
Bottom-up search methods for determining the efficient set of a multiple objective linear programming (MOLP) problem have a valuable advantage that they can quickly give efficient subsets of the MOLP problem to the decision makers. Main difficulties of the previously appeared bottom-up search methods are finding all efficient extreme points adjacent to and enumerating all … Read more
In this paper we discuss the global weak sharp minima property for vector optimization problems with polynomial data. Exploiting the imposed polynomial structure together with tools of variational analysis and a quantitative version of \L ojasiewicz’s gradient inequality due to D’Acunto and Kurdyka, we establish the H\”older type global weak sharp minima with explicitly calculated … Read more
We consider the directed Steiner tree problem (DSTP) with a constraint on the total number of arcs (hops) in the tree. This problem is known to be NP-hard, and therefore, only heuristics can be applied in the case of its large-scale instances. For the hop-constrained DSTP, we propose local search strategies aimed at improving any … Read more
This paper presents a method for finding global optima to constrained nonlinear programs via slack variables. The method only applies if all functions involved are of class C1 but without any further qualification on the types of constraints allowed; it proceeds by reformulating the given program into a bi-objective program that is then solved for … Read more
We consider a class of multicriteria stochastic optimization problems that features benchmarking constraints based on conditional value-at-risk and second-order stochastic dominance. We develop alternative mixed-integer programming formulations and solution methods for cut generation problems arising in optimization under such multivariate risk constraints. We give the complete linear description of two non-convex substructures appearing in these … Read more
In Pareto bi-objective integer optimization the optimal result corresponds to a set of non- dominated solutions. We propose a generic bi-objective branch-and-bound algorithm that uses a problem-independent branching rule exploiting available integer solutions, and cutting plane generation taking advantage of integer objective values. The developed algorithm is applied to the bi-objective team orienteering problem with … Read more
This paper presents a relatively “unfettered” method for finding global optima to constrained nonlinear programs. The method reformulates the given program into a bi-objective mixed-integer program that is then solved for the Nash equilibrium. A numerical example (whose solution provides a new benchmark against which other algorithms may be assessed) is included to illustrate the … Read more
In a general Hilbert framework, we consider continuous gradient-like dynamical systems for constrained multiobjective optimization involving non-smooth convex objective functions. Our approach is in the line of a previous work where was considered the case of convex di erentiable objective functions. Based on the Yosida regularization of the subdi erential operators involved in the system, we obtain … Read more
