Synopsis

These notes grew out of a series of lectures given by the author at the Univer­ sity of Budapest during 1985-1986. Additional results have been included which were obtained while the author was at the University of Erlangen-Niirnberg under a grant of the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation. Vector optimization has two main sources coming from economic equilibrium and welfare theories of Edgeworth (1881) and Pareto (1906) and from mathemat­ ical backgrounds of ordered spaces of Cantor (1897) and Hausdorff (1906). Later, game theory of Borel (1921) and von Neumann (1926) and production theory of Koopmans (1951) have also contributed to this area. However, only in the fifties, after the publication of Kuhn-Tucker's paper (1951) on the necessary and sufficient conditions for efficiency, and of Deubreu's paper (1954) on valuation equilibrium and Pareto optimum, has vector optimization been recognized as a mathematical discipline. The stretching development of this field began later in the seventies and eighties. Today there are a number of books on vector optimization. Most of them are concerned with the methodology and the applications. Few of them offer a systematic study of the theoretical aspects. The aim of these notes is to pro­ vide a unified background of vector optimization,with the emphasis on nonconvex problems in infinite dimensional spaces ordered by convex cones. The notes are arranged into six chapters. The first chapter presents prelim­ inary material.

À propos de l'auteur

Dinh The Luc is Distinguished Professor, Director of the Laboratory of Mathematics at Avignon University. He is also Research Fellow of the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology. He was graduated from Lomonosov Moscow State University in 1974 and received his PhD from the Hungarian Academy of Sciences in 1983. His research interests center on vector optimization, nonsmooth analysis, set-valued analysis and multi-criteria transportation network. His monograph "Theory of Vector Optimization" published by Springer in 1989 is one of the most cited books in this area. He is also co-author with V. Jeyakumar of "Nonsmooth Vector Functions and Continuous Optimization" (Springer 2008).
