Abstract

In this paper we focus on approximate minimal points of a set in Hausdorff locally convex spaces. Our aim is to develop a general framework from which it is possible to deduce important properties of these points by applying simple results. For this purpose we introduce a new concept of ε-efficient point based on set-valued mappings and we obtain existence results and properties on the behavior of these approximate efficient points when ε is fixed and by considering that ε tends to zero. Finally, the obtained results are applied to vector optimization problems with set-valued mappings.
