Summary:In this paper, we introduce the concept of a weakq-distance and for this distance we derive a set-valued version of Ekeland's variational principle in the setting of uniform spaces. By using this principle, we prove the existence of solutions to a vector optimization problem with a set-valued map. Moreover, we define the (p, ε)-condition of Takahashi and the (p, ε)-condition of Hamel for a set-valued map. It is shown that these two conditions are equivalent. As an application, we discuss the relationship between anε-approximate solution and a solution of a vector optimization problem with a set-valued map. Also, a well-posedness result for a vector optimization problem with a set-valued map is given. 2010Mathematics Subject Classification: 90C33, 49J40.
