Establishing Continuity of Certain Optimal Parametric Facility Location Trajectories

Published Online:https://doi.org/10.1287/trsc.22.3.224

Parametric elements arise naturally in many facility location problems. In this note we establish that if the objective function for a single-server parametric location problem is strictly convex in a certain sense, and if the objective function possesses certain reasonable continuity properties, then the parametric trajectory of the optimal location is continuous.
