Abstract

In this paper, we introduce a new class of optimization problems whose objective functions are weakly homogeneous relative to the constraint sets. By using the normalization argument in asymptotic analysis, we prove two criteria for the nonemptiness and boundedness of the solution set of a weakly homogeneous optimization problem. Moreover, we discuss the existence and stability of the solution sets of linearly parametric optimization problems. Several examples are given to illustrate the derived results.
