Attainability of properly efficient points via weighted norm scalarization

We show that efficient points can be obtained with the weighted norm scalarization under assumptions less restrictive than in the existing literature. For properly efficient points with a given trade-off bound, we provide an easy-to-compute lower bound on the norm parameter that allows the approximation of the desired points within a specified tolerance. We apply … Read more

Convexlikeness and Supportedness in Quadratic Multiobjective Optimization

This paper studies geometric and structural properties of quadratic multiobjective optimization problems. Thereby, a multiobjective optimization problem is called convexlike if the upper image, i.e., the image set plus the nonnegative orthant, is a convex set. Moreover, we say that a feasible point is supported in case it is a minimal solution of a weighted … Read more

On Supportedness-Promoting Image Space Transformations in Multiobjective Optimization

We study the supportedness of nondominated points of multiobjective optimization problems, that is, whether they can be obtained via weighted sum scalarization. One key question is how supported points behave under an efficiency-preserving transformation of the original problem. Under a differentiability assumption, we characterize the transformations that preserve both efficiency and supportedness as the component-wise … Read more
