Optimality and mixed saddle point criteria in multiobjective optimization (Q2481831)

The concept of a local minimizer of higher order was introduced by \textit{A. Auslender} [SIAM J. Control Optim. 22, 239--254 (1984; Zbl 0538.49020)]. \textit{D. E. Ward} [J. Optim. Theory Appl. 80, 551--571 (1994; Zbl 0797.90101)] presented the notion of strict local minimizer of order \(m\) for a scalar optimization problem. \textit{B. Jiménez} [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 265, No. 2, 264--284 (2002; Zbl 1010.90075)] extended this idea to define a notion of strict local efficient solution of order \(m\) for a vector optimization problem. \textit{B. Jiménez} and \textit{V. Novo} [Numer. Funct. Anal. Optim. 23, 303--322 (2002; Zbl 1025.90023), J. Math. Anal. Appl. 284, 496--510 (2003; Zbl 1033.90120)] presented the first and second order sufficient conditions for strict Pareto minima and strict local minima of orders 1 and 2 to multiobjective and vector optimization problems. In this paper, the author considers the notion of strict minimizer of order \(m\) for a multiobjective optimization problem. For the purpose of studying this solution concept, the author uses the notion of strong convexity of order \(m\) [\textit{G. H. Lin} and \textit{M. Fukushima}, J. Optim. Theory Appl. 118, 67--80 (2003; Zbl 1033.90087)].
