Abstract

This paper introduces two types of approximate Benson proper efficient solutions for set-valued optimization problems (in short, SVOP) under variable ordering structures in real linear space. We establish relationships between these two types of epsilon-Benson proper efficient solution of SVOP under variable ordering structure epsilon with other types of solutions of SVOP such as nondominated solution, epsilon-nondominated solution, and weakly epsilon-nondominated solution. Finally, some linear scalarization theorems of these two types of epsilon-Benson proper efficient solutions of SVOP under a variable ordering structure are established. We also improve and generalize several known results on Benson proper efficiency.
