Nash equilibrium is a central concept in game theory. Several Nash solvers exist, yet none scale to normal-form games with many actions and many players, especially those with payoff tensors too big to be stored in memory. In this work, we…

We propose an augmented Lagrangian-type algorithm for the solution of generalized Nash equilibrium problems (GNEPs). Specifically, we discuss the convergence properties with regard to both feasibility and optimality of limit points. This is…

Any individual's preference represents his choice in the set of available options. It is said to be complete if the person can compare any pair of available options. We aim to initiate the notion of projected solutions for the generalized…
