Auxiliary principle and algorithm for mixed equilibrium problems and bilevel mixed equilibrium problems in Banach spaces (Q604255)

Let \(B\) be a Banach space with dual \(B^*\). Let \(\|\cdot\|\) be the norm of \(B\) and \(\langle\cdot,\cdot\rangle\) the duality pairing between \(B\) and \(B^*\). Let \(C\) be a nomempty closed convex subset of \(B\). Let \(F,H: C\times C\to\mathbb{R}\) and \(\psi,\phi: B\times B\to\mathbb{R}\) be four bifunctions. It is considered the following bilevel mixed equilibrium problem: \[ \text{find }\overline x\in S_{F,\phi}\text{ such that }H(\overline x,y)+ \psi(y,\overline x)- \psi(\overline x,\overline x)\geq 0,\;\forall y\in S_{F,\phi}, \] where \(S_{F,\phi}\) is the solution set of the following mixed equilibrium problem: \[ \text{find }u\in C\text{ such that }F(u,y)+ \phi(y, u)- \phi(u, u)\geq 0,\;\forall y\in C. \] By using the auxiliary principle technique, new iterative algorithms for solving the mixed equilibrium problems and bilevel mixed equilibrium problems are suggested and analyzed. Strong convergence of the iterative sequences generated by the algorithms is proved under suitable conditions. The behavior of the solution set of the bilevel mixed equilibrium problem is also discussed.
