چکیده

The generalized Nash equilibrium problem is a generalization of the standard Nash equilibrium problem, in which both the utility function and the strategy space of each player may depend on the strategies chosen by all other players. This problem has been used to model various problems in applications but convergent solution algorithms are extremely scare in the literature. In this article, we show that a generalized Nash equilibrium can be calculated by solving a variational inequality (VI). Moreover, conditions for the local superlinear convergence of a semismooth Newton method being applied to the VI are also given. Some numerical results are presented to illustrate the performance of the method.

Existence of Nash Equilibria via Variational Inequalities in Riemannian Manifolds

In this paper, we first prove a generalization of McClendon’s variational inequality for contractible multimaps. Next, using a new generalized variational inequality, we will prove an existence theorem of Nash equilibrium for the generalized game G = (Xi;Ti, fi)i∈I in a finite dimensional Riemannian manifold. A suitable example for Nash equilibrium is given in a geodesic convex generalized game...

Quasi-variational inequalities, generalized Nash equilibria, and multi-leader-follower games

The noncooperative multi-leader-follower game can be formulated as a generalized Nash equilibrium problem where each player solves a nonconvex mathematical program with equilibrium constraints. Two major deficiencies exist with such a formulation: One is that the resulting Nash equilibrium may not exist, due to the nonconvexity in each player’s problem; the other is that such a nonconvex Nash g...

Revisiting Generalized Nash Games and Variational Inequalities

Generalized Nash games represent an extension of Nash games in which strategy sets are coupled across players. The equilibrium conditions of such a game can be compactly stated as a quasivariational inequality (QVI), an extension of the variational inequality (VI). Harker [9] showed that under certain conditions on the maps defining the QVI, a solution to a related VI solves the QVI. This is a ...
