An explicit Tikhonov algorithm for nested variational inequalities

We consider nested variational inequalities consisting in a (upper-level) variational inequality whose feasible set is given by the solution set of another (lower-level) variational inequality. Purely hierarchical convex bilevel optimization problems and certain multi-follower games are particular instances of nested variational inequalities. We present an explicit and ready-to-implement Tikhonov-type solution method for such problems. We … Read more

Equilibrium selection for multi-portfolio optimization

This paper studies a Nash game arising in portfolio optimization. We introduce a new general multi-portfolio model and state sufficient conditions for the monotonicity of the underlying Nash game. This property allows us to treat the problem numerically and, for the case of nonunique equilibria, to solve hierarchical problems of equilibrium selection. We also give … Read more
