Abstract

In analogy to the scalarization principle in vector optimization, this paper presents a new vectorization approach for set optimization problems. Vectorization means the replacement of a set optimization problem by a suitable vector optimization problem. This approach is developed for the set less order relation used by Kuroiwa and the minmax less order relation introduced by Ha and Jahn.
