“…In the last years, the second-order optimality condition and higher-order optimality conditions have been widely investigated in set-valued optimization [3], [4], [5], [6], [9], [11], [12], [13], [14], [16], [18], [25], [23], [21], [28], [31]. It can be seen that a second-order contingent set, introduced by Aubin and Frankowska [2], and a second-order asymptotic contingent cone, introduced by Penot [28], play a important role in establishing second-order optimality conditions.…”
