Abstract

In this paper, the notion of equi-well-posed optimization problem as studied by Dontchev and Zolezzi, (Ref. 1) is extended to noncooperative games. Some existence theorems for Berge and Nash equilibria are obtained. Under some invariance properties, the existence of Berge equilibria which are also Nash equilibria points is studied.
