In this paper, a new concept of generalized convexity is introduced for not necessarily differentiable vector optimization problems. For an E-differentiable function, the concept of E-invexity is introduced as a generalization of the E-differentiable E-convexity notion. In addition, some properties of E-differentiable E-invex functions are investigated. Furthermore, the so-called E-Karush-Kuhn-Tucker necessary optimality conditions are established for the considered E-differentiable vector optimization problems with both inequality and equality constraints. Also, the sufficiency of the E-Karush-Kuhn-Tucker necessary optimality conditions are proved for such E-differentiable vector optimization problems in which the involved functions are E-invex and/or generalized E-invex.
