Relationships between Polyhedral Convex Sets and Generalized Polyhedral Convex Sets

In this paper we study some relationships between polyhedral convex sets (PCS) and generalized polyhedral convex sets (GPCS). In particular, we clarify by a counterexample that the necessary and sufficient conditions for the separation of a convex set and a PCS obtained by Kung Fu Ng and Wen Song in [Fenchel duality in finite-dimensional setting and its applications, Nonlinear Anal. 55(2003), 845--858; Theorem~3.1] are no longer valid when considering GPCS instead of PCS. We also introduce and study the notions of generalized polyhedral set-valued mappings and optimal value functions generated by generalized polyhedral convex set-valued mappings along with their generalized differentiation calculus rules.
