Abstract

In this paper, we provide optimality conditions for approximate proper solutions of a multiobjective optimization problem, whose feasible set is given by a cone constraint and the ordering cone is polyhedral. A first class of optimality conditions is given by means of a nonlinear scalar Lagrangian and the second kind through a linear scalarization technique, under generalized convexity hypotheses, that lets us derive a Kuhn–Tucker multiplier rule.
