Abstract
We consider the feasibility problem in a multi-agent decentralized form, where each agent has the personal information of the feasible subset, which is unknown to other agents. The common feasible set is composed of the agents’ feasible subsets. For solving this problem, we reformulate it in the form of a variational inequality and propose an algorithm based on the projection method. Preliminary test calculations confirm the efficiency of the proposed approach.
