Abstract In this paper, sufficient optimality conditions for a multiobjective subset
programming problem are established under generalized (F, , , d)-type-I functions.

1 Introduction
The concept of optimizing n-set functions was initially developed by Morris [24],
whose results are confined only to set functions of a single set. Such type of pro-
gramming problems have various interesting applications in fluid flow [4], electrical
insulator design [7], regional design (districting, facility location, warehouse layout,
urban planning, etc.)[10,11], statistics [12,25] and optimal plasma confinement [28].
Corley [9] generalized the results of Morris [24] to n-set functions and discussed
optimality conditions and Lagrangian duality. Several authors have shown interest
