Existence Results for Systems of Vector Equilibrium Problems*

The purpose of this paper is to study systems of vector equilibrium problems. We establish some existence theorems for systems of vector equilibrium problems by using (S)₊-conditions and Kakutani–Fan–Glicksberg fixed point theorem *This work was supported by the Kyungnam University Research Fund 2004     

System of Generalized Vector Quasi-Equilibrium Problems in Locally FC-Spaces

A new class of locally finite continuous topological spaces （for short, locally FC-spaces） and a class of system of generalized vector quasi-equilibrium problems are introduced. By applying a generalized Himmelberg type fixed point theorem for a set-valued mapping with KKM-property due to the author, a collectively fixed point and an equilibrium existence theorem of generalized game are first proved in locally FC-spaces. By applying our equilibrium existence theorem of generalized game, some new existence theorems of equilibrium points for the system of generalized vector quasi-equilibrium problems are proved in locally FC-spaces. These theorems improve, unify and generalize many known results in the literatures.     

Existence of Solutions and Algorithms for Bilevel Vector Equilibrium Problems: An Auxiliary Principle Technique

The main goal of this paper is to introduce and study bilevel vector equilibrium problems. We first establish some existence results for solutions of vector equilibrium problems and mixed vector equilibrium problems. We study the existence of solutions of bilevel vector equilibrium problems by considering a vector Thikhonov-type regularization procedure. By using this regularization procedure and existence results for mixed vector equilibrium problems, we establish some existence results for solutions of bilevel vector equilibrium problems. By using the auxiliary principle, we propose an algorithm for finding the approximate solutions of bilevel vector equilibrium problems. The strong convergence of the proposed algorithm is also studied.     

EXISTENCE AND DUALITY OF IMPLICIT VECTOR VARIATIONAL PROBLEMS*

In this paper, we consider implicit vector variational problems which contain vector equilibrium problems and vector variational inequalities as special cases. The existence of solutions of implicit vector variational problems and vector equilibrium problems have been established. As a special case, we derive some existence results for a solution of vector variational inequalities. We also study the duality of implicit vector variational problems and discuss the relationship between solutions of dual and primal problems. Our results on duality contains known results in the literature as special cases.

     

Upper order-preservation of the solution correspondence to vector equilibrium problems

In this paper, several order-theoretic fixed point theorems are proved on partially ordered topological spaces. Applying these fixed point theorems, we explore the existence and upper order-preservation for parametric vector equilibrium problems. In contrast to the previous results on vector equilibrium problems, the upper order-preservation of solutions is a new subject, which would be useful for predicting the changing trend of solutions to vector equilibrium problems. In addition, neither topological continuity nor convexity of the considered vector-valued bifunction F is required in our results.     

Vector Equilibrium Problems,Minimal Element Problems and Least Element Problems

In this paper we introduce some concepts of feasible sets for vector equilibrium problems and some classes of Z-maps for vectorial bifunctions. Under strict pseudomonotonicity assumptions, we investigate the relationship between minimal element problems of feasible sets and vector equilibrium problems. By using Z-maps, we further study the least element problems of feasible sets for vector equilibrium problems. Finally, we prove a generalized sublattice property of feasible sets for vector equilibrium problems associated with Z-maps.

Generalized Vector Equilibrium Problems for Pseudomonotone Multivalued Bifunctions<Superscript><Emphasis Type="Bold">1</Emphasis></Superscript>

In this paper, we apply a new version of the Brézis, Nirenberg, and Stampacchia theorem; we use pseudomonotonicity and some coercivity conditions to establish some existence result for a solution of generalized vector equilibrium problems for multivalued bifunctions. The proper quasiconvexity of multivalued bifunctions is introduced and existence theorems for generalized vector equilibrium problems related to multivalued mappings with the KKM property are obtained. The new results extend and modify various existence theorems for similar problems.     

System of Generalized Vector Quasi-Equilibrium Problems with Applications to Fixed Point Theorems for a Family of Nonexpansive Multivalued Mappings

In this paper, we establish the existence theorems of the generalized vector quasi-equilibrium problems. From some existence theorem, we establish fixed point theorems for a family of lower semicontinuous or nonexpansive multivalued mappings. We also obtain the existence theorems of system of mixed generalized vector variational-like inequalities and existence theorems of the Debreu vector equilibrium problems and the Nash vector equilibrium problems.     

On System of Generalized Vector Quasi-equilibrium Problems with Set-valued Maps

In this paper, we introduce four new types of the system of generalized vector quasi-equilibrium problems with set-valued maps which include system of vector quasi-equilibrium problems, system of vector equilibrium problems, system of variational inequality problems, and vector equilibrium problems in the literature as special cases. We prove the existence of solutions for such kinds of system of generalized vector quasi-equilibrium problems. Consequently, we derive some existence results of a solution for the system of vector quasi-equilibrium problems and the generalized Debreu type equilibrium problem for vector-valued functions.     

KKM Type Theorems and Coincidence Theorems with Applications to the Existence of Equilibria

In this paper, we obtain some coincidence theorems and some KKM-type theorems. We apply these results to establish the existence of the solution to generalized vector equilibrium problems, where a bimap f : X × Y 2^Z is involved and some sufficient conditions are imposed on f.
