Abstract

The concept and characterization of proper efficiency is of significant theoretical and computational interest, in multiobjective optimization and decision-making, to prevent solutions with unbounded marginal rates of substitution. In this paper, we propose a slight modification to the original definition in the sense of Geoffrion, which maintains the common characterizations of properly efficient points as solutions to weighted sums or series and augmented or modified weighted Tchebycheff norms, also if the number of objective functions is countably infinite. We give new proofs and counterexamples which demonstrate that such results become invalid for infinitely many criteria with respect to the original definition, in general, and we address the motivation and practical relevance of our findings for possible applications in stochastic optimization and decision-making under uncertainty.
