Abstract
We consider equilibrium problems in the framework of the formulation proposed by Blum and Oettli, which includes variational inequalities, Nash equilibria in noncooperative games, and vector optimization problems, for instance, as particular cases. We establish new sufficient and/or necessary conditions for existence of solutions of such problems. Our results are based upon the relation between equilibrium problems and certain auxiliary convex feasibility problems, together with extensions to equilibrium problems of gap functions for variational inequalities. Then we apply our results to some particular instances of equilibrium problems, obtaining results which include, among others, a new lemma of the alternative for convex optimization problems.
