Saddle points and gap functions for vector equilibrium problems via conjugate duality in vector optimization

In this paper, two conjugate dual problems based on weak efficiency to a constrained vector optimization problem are introduced. Some inclusion relations between the dual objective mappings and the properties of the Lagrangian maps and their saddle points for primal problem are discussed. Gap functions for a vector equilibrium problem are established by using the weak and strong duality. © 2008 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
