Abstract

In this paper, some notions of pointwise well-posedness for set optimization problems are introduced. Some relationships among these notions are established. Using a new nonlinear scalarization function, pointwise well-posed set optimization problems are characterized by means of a family of Tykhonov well-posed scalar optimization problems. Also, three classes of well-posed set optimization problems are identified.
