© Hindawi Publishing Corp. SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS FOR PARAMETRIC VECTOR OPTIMIZATION PROBLEMS USING DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS APPROACH

Abstract. A newmethod for obtaining sensitivity information for parametric vector opti-mization problems (VOP)v is presented, where the parameters in the objective functions and anywhere in the constraints. This method depends on using differential equations technique for solving multiobjective nonlinear programing problems which is very effec-tive in finding many local Pareto optimal solutions. The behavior of the local solutions for slight perturbation of the parameters in the neighborhood of their chosen initial values is presented by using the technique of trajectory continuation. Finally some examples are given to show the efficiency of the proposed method. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification. Primary 90C29, 90C30, 90C31. 1. Introduction.
