Abstract

A new approach for synthetizing optimization algorithms is presented. New concepts for the continuity of point-to-set maps are given in terms of families of maps. These concepts are well adapted to construct fixed point theorems that are widely useful for synthetizing optimization methods. The general algorithms already published are shown to be particular applications and illustrations in the field of mathematical programming are given.
