Abstract

This paper aims at combining variable ordering structures with set relations in set optimization, which have been defined using the constant ordering cone before. We provide several new set relations in the context of variable ordering structures, discuss their usefulness, and give different examples from a practical point of view. After analyzing the properties of the introduced relations, we define solution notions for set-valued optimization problems equipped with variable ordering structures. We also relate these new notions to those ones obtained by the so-called vector approach.
