Existence Theorems for Maximal Elements in H-spaces with Applications on the Minimax Inequalities and Equilibrium of Games
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we give two new existence theorems for maximal elements in H-spaces. As their applications, we obtain a extended version of Fan–Yen minimax inequality and some new existence theorems of an equilibrium for a qualitative game and an abstract economy. Our main results not only generalize the corresponding results of [4, 12, 15, 16] to H-spaces, but also the open question raised by Yannelis and Prabhakar [15] is answered in affirmative.

Maximal elements of $mathscr{F}_{C,theta}$-majorized mappings and applications to generalized games
In the paper, some new existence theorems of maximal elements for $mathscr{F}_{C,theta}$-mappings and $mathscr{F}_{C,theta}$-majorized mappings are established. As applications, some new existence theorems of equilibrium points for one-person games, qualitative games and generalized games are obtained. Our results unify and generalize most known results in recent literature.
متن کاملDocument de travail du LEM 2008-18 EXISTENCE OF EQUILIBRIUM IN MINIMAX INEQUALITIES, SADDLE POINTS, FIXED POINTS, AND GAMES WITHOUT CONVEXITY SETS
This paper characterizes the existence of equilibria in minimax inequalities without assuming any form of quasi-concavity of functions and convexity or compactness of choice sets. A new condition, called “local dominatedness property”, is shown to be necessary and further, under some mild continuity condition, sufficient for the existence of equilibrium. We then apply the basic result obtained ...

متن کاملFixed Point and Equilibrium Theorems in Pseudoconvex and Related Spaces
Convexity spaces defined in the paper are generated by families of continuous functions. Without imposing any explicitly stated linear structure on the spaces, Browder’s, Brouwer’s and Kakutani’s fixed point theorems are proved and used for deriving generalized Fan inequalities and two-function minimax theorems. The existence of Nash equilibria in noncooperative games is also established under ...
متن کاملFuzzy Vector Equilibrium Problem
In the present paper, we introduce and study a fuzzy vector equilibrium problem and prove some existence results with and without convexity assumptions by using some particular forms of results of textit{Kim} and textit{Lee} [W.K. Kim and K.H. Lee, Generalized fuzzy games and fuzzy equilibria, Fuzzy Sets and Systems, 122 (2001), 293-301] and textit{Tarafdar} [E. Tarafdar, Fixed point theorems i...
