Traditionally, researchers in decision making have focused on attempting to reach Pareto Optimality using horizontal approaches, where optimality is calculated taking into account every participant at the same time. Sometimes, this may prove to be a difficult task (e.g., conflict, mistrust, no information sharing, etc.). In this paper, we explore the possibility of achieving Pareto Optimal outc...

In this paper we consider a vector integer programming problem with Pareto principle of optimality for the case where partial criteria belong to the class of separable piecewise linear functions. The limit level of the initial data’s perturbations in the space of vector criteria parameters with norms l1 and l∞, preserved Pareto optimality of the solutions is investigated. Formulas of the quasis...

Pareto optimality is a domain-independent property that can be used to coordinate distributed engineering agents. Within a model of design called Redux, some aspects of dependency-directed backtracking can be interpreted as tracking Pareto optimality. These concepts are implemented in a framework, called Next-Link, that coordinates legacy engineering systems. This framework allows existing soft...

For a general class of pure exchange OLG economies under uncertainty, we provide a complete characterization of the efficiency properties of competitive equilibria when markets are only sequentially complete and the criterion of efficiency is conditional Pareto optimality. We also consider a particular case in which markets fail to be even sequentially complete and provide a characterization wh...

We consider the problem of allocating an infinitely divisible commodity among a group of agents with single-peaked preferences. A rule that has played a central role in the analysis of the problem is the so-called uniform rule. Chun (2001) proves that the uniform rule is the only rule satisfying Pareto optimality, no-envy, separability, and Ω-continuity. We obtain an alternative characterizatio...

In this paper, we first present a new important property for Bouligand tangent cone (contingent cone) of a star-shaped set. We then establish optimality conditions for Pareto minima and proper ideal efficiencies in nonsmooth vector optimization problems by means of Bouligand tangent cone of image set, where the objective is generalized cone convex set-valued map, in general real normed spaces.

This paper reviews some state-of-the-art hybrid multiobjective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs) dealing with multiobjective optimization problem (MOP). The mathematical formulation of a MOP and some basic definition for tackling MOPs, including Pareto optimality, Pareto optimal set (PS), Pareto front (PF) are provided in Section 1. Section 2 presents a brief introduction to hybrid MOEAs.

The objective of this work is to try to define and calculate the optimal growth path, in the presence of exogenous technical change, without resorting to the discounted-sum criterion. The solution suggested is to consider an optimality criterion expressing an Allais-anonymous intergenerational consensus. The partial characterization of consensual optimality was made possible thanks to the decom...
