Shares Allocation Methods for Generalized Game Problems with Joint Constraints

© 2015, Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.We consider an extension of a noncooperative game problem where players have joint binding constraints. We suggest a shares allocation approach, which replaces the initial problem with a sequence of Nash equilibrium problems together with an upper level set-valued variational inequality as master problem. This transformation maintains the monotonicity properties of the underlying mappings. We also show that the regularization yields a decomposable penalty method, which removes complex functions in constraints within the custom noncooperative game framework and provides the single-valued master problem with strengthened monotonicity of its cost mapping
