Abstract

A hypermatrix (tensor) complementarity problem \(\textit{HMCP}(q,\mathcal {A})\) is to find a vector \(x\in \mathbb {R}^n\) such that \(x\ge 0,~\mathcal {A}x+q\ge 0,~x^T(\mathcal {A}x+q)=0,\) for every \(q\in \mathbb {R}^n\), where \(\mathcal {A}\) is an mth order hypermatrix (tensor) (Song and Qi in J Optim Theory Appl 165(3): 854–873, 2015). Uniqueness, feasibility, and strict feasibility of the solution of a complementarity problem induced by a (compact) set of hypermatrices are characterized in terms of the hypermatrices involved.
