Abstract
Set-valued optimization is a vibrant and expanding branch of applied mathematics that deals with optimization problems where the objective map and/or the constraint maps are set-valued maps acting between abstract spaces. Since the notion of set-valued maps subsumes single-valued maps, set-valued optimization provides an important generalization and unification of scalar as well as vector optimization problems. Therefore, this relatively new discipline has justifiably attracted a great deal of attention in recent years.
