Duality for equilibrium problems under generalized monotonicity. (English) Zbl 1016.90066
Authors’ abstract: Duality is studied for an abstract equilibrium problem which includes, among others, optimization problems and variational inequality problems. Following different schemes, various duals are proposed and primal-dual relationships are established under certain generalized convexity and generalized monotonicity assumption. In a primal-dual setting, existence results for a solution are derived for different generalized monotone equilibrium problems within each duality scheme.
