Existence conditions for symmetric strong vector quasi-equilibrium problems

Abstract

In the following paper, the symmetric strong vector quasi-equilibrium problems will be studied thoroughly. Afterward, the existence conditions of solution sets for these problems has been established. The results which are presented in this paper improve and extend the main results mentioned in the literature. Our results can be illustrated by some interesting examples. In 1994, Noor and Oettli introduced the following the symmetric scalar quasi-equilibrium problem. This problem is one of the generalization of the symmetric scalar quasi-equilibrium problem which is presented by Noor and Oettli. Since then, the symmetric vector quasi-equilibrium problem has been investigated by a huge number of authors in different ways. The research works mentioned above are one of our motivation to improve and extend the problem. So, in this paper, we will introduce the vector quasi-equilibrium problems. Afterward, some existence conditions of solution sets for these problems will be established. The symmetric vector quasi-equilibrium problems consist of many optimization - related models namely symmetric vector quasi-variational inequality problems, fixed point problems, coincidence-point problems and complementarity problems, etc. In recent years, a lot of results for existence of solutions for symmetric vector quasi-equilibrium problems, vector quasi-equilibrium problems, vector quasivariational inequality problems and optimization problems have been established by many authors in different ways. We will present our work in the following steps. In the first section of our paper, we will introduce the model of symmetric vector quasi-equilibrium problems. In the following section, we recall definitions, lemmas which can be used for the main results. In the last section, we will establish some conditions for existence and closedness of the solutions set by applying fixed-point theorem for symmetric vector quasi-equilibrium problems. The results presented in this paper improve and extend the main results in the literature. Some examples are given to illustrate our results. Hence our results, Theorem 3.1 and Theorem 3.6 have significant improvements.
