Abstract
In this paper we give several existence results for solutions of equilibrium problems in topological spaces without linear structure. To this end we introduce a new concept of convexity for maps and multivalued maps in spaces without linear structure. The discussion on convexity is enriched with some example useful to compare the new conditions with the existing one in literature. Finally, we apply the existence results obtained to a Nash equilibrium problem and to a maximization of a binary relation.
期刊介绍:
The scope of the journal includes variational analysis and its applications to mathematics, economics, and engineering; set-valued analysis and generalized differential calculus; numerical and computational aspects of set-valued and variational analysis; variational and set-valued techniques in the presence of uncertainty; equilibrium problems; variational principles and calculus of variations; optimal control; viability theory; variational inequalities and variational convergence; fixed points of set-valued mappings; differential, integral, and operator inclusions; methods of variational and set-valued analysis in models of mechanics, systems control, economics, computer vision, finance, and applied sciences. High quality papers dealing with any other theoretical aspect of control and optimization are also considered for publication.
