Abstract.

Efficient, weakly and properly Pareto optimal solutions of multiobjective optimization problems can be characterized with the help of different cones. Here, contingent, tangent and normal cones as well as cones of feasible directions are used in the characterizations. The results are first presented in convex cases and then generalized to nonconvex cases by employing local concepts.
