摘要

The exact penalty function method is a commonly used unconstrained optimization technique for solving nonlinear optimization problems with constraints. Due to the complexity of interval-valued vector optimization problems, there are almost very few effective penalty functions to handle these problems. This paper aims at constructing an unconstrained interval-valued vector optimization problem related to a nondifferentiable interval-valued vector optimization problem via the exact \(l_1\) l 1 penalty function. Under some suitable convexity assumptions, the equivalence of the (weakly) LU-efficient solution of the interval-valued vector original and the penalized optimization problem is proved. Moreover, we introduce a new interval-valued vector Lagrange function and analyze the relation between a (weakly) LU-efficient solution of the corresponding interval-valued vector penalized optimization problem and a saddle point of the defined Lagrange function. Some examples are given to illustrate the derived results.
