Variational Analysis and Set Optimization

Akhtar Khan is a Professor at Rochester Institute of Technology. His has published more than seventy papers on set-valued optimization, inverse problems, and variational inequalities. He is a co-author of Set-valued Optimization, Springer (2015),　and Co-editor of Nonlinear Analysis and Variational Problems, Springer (2009). He is Co-Editor in Chief of the Journal of Applied and Numerical Optimization, and Editorial Board member of Optimization, Journal of Optimization Theory and Applications, and Journal of Nonlinear and Variational Analysis.Elisabeth Köbis is a lecturer and researcher at Martin-Luther-University Halle-Wittenberg, Germany. She received her PhD from Martin-Luther-University Halle-Wittenberg, Germany, in 2014. Her research interests lie in vector and set optimization and its applications to uncertain optimization, in particular robust approaches to uncertain multi-objective optimization problems, and unified approaches to uncertain optimization using nonlinear scalarization, vector variational inequalities and variable domination structures.Christiane Tammer is working on the field variational analysis and optimization. She has co-authored 4 monographs, i.e. Set-valued Optimization - An Introduction with Applications. Springer (2015), Variational Methods in Partially Ordered Spaces. Springer (2003), Angewandte Funktionalanalysis. Vieweg+Teubner (2009), Approximation und Nichtlineare Optimierung in Praxisaufgaben. Springer (2017). She is the Editor in Chief of the journal Optimization and a member of the Editorial Board of several journals, the Scientific Committee of the Working Group on Generalized Convexity and　EUROPT Managing Board.
