Abstract. The primary objective of this paper is to
employ the Dubovitskii-Milyutin approach to give first and second-order
optimality conditions for set-valued optimization problems with more
general set-valued constraints. In the particular case when some constraints
are single-valued, we recover the case of set-valued optimization problems
with many set-valued inequality constraints and many single-valued equality
constraints. It is known that the classical Dubovitskii-Milyutin approach
is not suitable for optimization problems with multi-equality constraints.
The main reason for this deficiency is the fact that the separation
arguments used in the classical Dubovitskii-Milyutin approach are
applicable to an empty intersection of cones in which at most one cone can
be closed. However, a proper formulation of multi-equality constraints
leads to an empty intersection with more than one closed cones. To study
optimization problems with multi-equality constraints, a generalized
Dubovitskii-Milyutin theory has been developed. In this work we present an
extension of the generalized Dubovitskii-Milyutin theory to the set-valued
optimization problems. In this process, we also obtain new applications of
this theory to nonsmooth optimization and to more general vector
optimization problems. New second-order asymptotic derivatives of
set-valued maps are introduced and used to give the optimality conditions.
