Abstract

A multiobjective optimization problem is CrC^r simplicial if the Pareto set and the Pareto front are CrC^r diffeomorphic to a simplex and, under the CrC^r diffeomorphisms, each face of the simplex corresponds to the Pareto set and the Pareto front of a subproblem, where 0r0\leq r\leq \infty. In the paper titled "Topology of Pareto sets of strongly convex problems," it has been shown that a strongly convex CrC^r problem is Cr1C^{r-1} simplicial under a mild assumption on the ranks of the differentials of the mapping for 2r2\leq r \leq \infty. On the other hand, in this paper, we show that a strongly convex C1C^1 problem is C0C^0 simplicial under the same assumption. Moreover, we establish a specialized transversality theorem on generic linear perturbations of a strongly convex CrC^r mapping (r2)(r\geq 2). By the transversality theorem, we also give an application of singularity theory to a strongly convex CrC^r problem for 2r2\leq r \leq \infty.
