Abstract
We extend the concept of well-posedness to the split equilibrium problem and establish Furi–Vignoli-type characterizations for the well-posedness. We prove that the well-posedness of the split equilibrium problem is equivalent to the existence and uniqueness of its solution under certain assumptions on the bifunctions involved. We also characterize the generalized well-posedness of the split equilibrium problem via the Kuratowski measure of noncompactness. We illustrate our theoretical results by several examples.
