A solution method for semivectorial bilevel programming problem via penalty method

In this paper, we address a class of semivectorial bilevel programming problem in which the upper level is a scalar optimization problem and the lower level is a linear multi-objective optimization problem. Then, we present a new penalty function method, which includes two different penalty parameters, for solving such a problem. Furthermore, we give a simple algorithm. Numerical examples show that the proposed algorithm is feasible.
