Abstract
Let (X, ) be a topological vector space equipped with a partial order
which is induced by a nonempty pointed closed and convex cone K in X. Let
(X) = 2X be the power set of X and
(X) = 2X\{
}. In this paper, we consider the so called upward preordering
on
(X), which has been used by many authors (see [4
7, 9, 11
14, 18
19]). We first prove some properties of this ordering relation
Let
(X) denote the collection of all
-closed subsets of X and
(X) =
(X)\{
}, which is equipped with the Fell topology
Let C be a nonempty subset of X and let F: C
(X) be a closed set-valued mapping. By applying the Fell topology
on
(X) and the Fan-KKM Theorem, we prove some existence theorems for some
-minimization and
-maximization problems with respect to F subject to the subset C for first countable topological vector spaces. These results will be applied to solve some closed ball-valued optimization problems in partially ordered Hilbert spaces. Some examples will be provided in
