This volume is intended for readers who, whether they be mathematicians, workers in other fields or students, are familiar with the basic approaches and methods of mathematical optimization. The subject matter is concerned with optimization problems in which some or all of the individual data involved depend on one parameter. Such problems are called oneparametric optimization problems. Solution algorithms for such problems are of interest for several reasons. We consider here mainly applications of solution algorithms for oneparametric optimization problems in the following fields: (i) globally convergent algorithms for nonlinear, in particular nonconvex, optimization problems, (ii) global optimization, (iii) multiobjective optimization. The main tool for a solution algorithm for a oneparametric optimization problem will be the socalled pathfollowing methods (also called continuation or homotopy methods) (cf. Chapters 3 and 4). Classical methods in the set of stationary points will be extended to the set of all generalized critical points. This could be helpful since the path of stationary points stops in this set, but there is a continuation in the broader set of generalized critical points. However, it will be shown that pathfollowing methods only are not successful in every case. This is the reason why we propose to jump from one connected component in the set of local minimizers and generalized critical points, respectively, to another one (Chapter 5).
