Geometrical and Topological Properties of a Parameterized Binary Relation in Vector Optimization.

In real linear spaces, partial orderings are usually generated by ordering cones. In many situations, however, such an ordering cone is too small with respect to the whole space. Therefore, in this paper, we extend the concept of ordering cones to a more general concept. For this purpose, we define a parameterized binary relation, based on a convex cone and a binary function. We investigate some geometrical and topological properties of this relation in detail. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
