New optimality conditions and a scalarization approach for a nonconvex semi-vectorial bilevel optimization problem. (English) Zbl 1476.90297

The author transforms a bilevel optimization problem into a scalar-objective optimization problem and proves some theoretical properties. In a bilevel optimization problem the feasible region of the upper level optimization problem is limited to the solution set of the lower level optimization problem. Necessary local optimality conditions are introduced. A new scalarization technique, different to the classical scalarization approach is provided for nonconvex semivectorial optimization problems. A transformation to a single level optimization problem is provided and KKT-type necessary optimality conditions are derived. The method is applicable to nonconvex optimization problems.
