Coerciveness condition for quasi-equilibrium problems

Abstract

A quasi-equilibrium problem is an equilibrium problem where the constraint set does depend on the reference point. It generalizes important problems such as quasi-variational inequalities and generalized Nash equilibrium problems. We study the existence of equilibria on unbounded sets under a coerciveness condition adapted from one specific for quasi-variational inequalities recently proposed by Aussel and Sultana. We discuss the relation of our results with others that are present in the literature.
