This paper attempts to generalize and unify several new results that have been obtained in the ongoing research area of existence of solutions for equilibrium problems. First, we propose sufficient conditions, which include generalized monotonicity and weak coercivity conditions, for existence of equilibrium points. As consequences, we generalize various recent theorems on the existence of such solutions. For applications, we treat some generalized variational inequalities and complementarity problems. In addition, considering penalty functions, we study the position of a selected solution by relying on the viscosity principle.

Generalized Equilibrium Problems
Mathematics
If X is a convex subset of a topological vector space and f is a real bifunction defined on X×X, the problem of finding a point x0∈X such that f(x0,y)≥0 for all y∈X, is called an equilibrium problem. When the bifunction f is defined on the cartesian product of two distinct sets X and Y we will call it a generalized equilibrium problem. In this paper, we study the existence of the solutions, first for generalized equilibrium problems and then for equilibrium problems. In the obtained results, apart from the bifunction f, another bifunction is introduced, the two being linked by a certain compatibility condition. The particularity of the equilibrium theorems established in the last section consists of the fact that the classical equilibrium condition (f(x,x)=0, for all x∈X) is missing. The given applications refer to the Minty variational inequality problem and quasi-equilibrium problems.

In this paper, we propose two modified two-step proximal methods that are formed through the proximal-like mapping and inertial effect for solving two classes of equilibrium problems. A weak convergence theorem for the first method and the strong convergence result of the second method are well established based on the mild condition on a bifunction. Such methods have the advantage of not involving any line search procedure or any knowledge of the Lipschitz-type constants of the bifunction. One practical reason is that the stepsize involving in these methods is updated based on some previous iterations or uses a stepsize sequence that is non-summable. We consider the well-known Nash–Cournot equilibrium models to support our well-established convergence results and see the advantage of the proposed methods over other well-known methods.

Solving Generalized Mixed Equilibria, Variational Inequalities, and Constrained Convex Minimization
Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2014
We propose implicit and explicit iterative algorithms for finding a common element of the set of solutions of the minimization problem for a convex and continuously Fréchet differentiable functional, the set of solutions of a finite family of generalized mixed equilibrium problems, and the set of solutions of a finite family of variational inequalities for inverse strong monotone mappings in a real Hilbert space. We prove that the sequences generated by the proposed algorithms converge strongly to a common element of three sets, which is the unique solution of a variational inequality defined over the intersection of three sets under very mild conditions.
