Abstract
The concept of a cone subarcwise connected set-valued map is introduced. Several examples are given to illustrate that the cone subarcwise connected set-valued map is a proper generalization of the cone arcwise connected set-valued map, as well as the arcwise connected set is a proper generalization of the convex set, respectively. Then, by virtue of the generalized second-order contingent epiderivative, second-order necessary optimality conditions are established for a point pair to be a local global proper efficient element of set-valued optimization problems. When objective function is cone subarcwise connected, a second-order sufficient optimality condition is also obtained for a point pair to be a global proper efficient element of set-valued optimization problems.
