Application of the Proximal Point Method to a System of Extended Primal-Dual Equilibrium Problems

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Economics and Mathematical Systems ((LNE,volume 563))

Summary

We consider a general system of equilibrium type problems which can be viewed as an extension of Lagrangean primal-dual equilibrium problems. We propose to solve the system by an inexact proximal point method, which converges to a solution under monotonicity assumptions. In order to make the method implementable, we suggest to make use of a dual descent algorithm and utilize gap functions for ensuring satisfactory accuracy of certain auxiliary problems. Some examples of applications are also given.
