Abstract
In this paper, firstly, a new notion of generalized cone convex set-valued map is introduced in real normed spaces. Secondly, a property of the generalized cone convex set-valued map involving the contingent epiderivative is obtained. Finally, as the applications of this property, we use the contingent epiderivative to establish optimality conditions of the set-valued optimization problem with generalized cone convex set-valued maps in the sense of Henig proper efficiency. The results obtained in this paper generalize and improve some known results in the literature.
