Solving a Class of Generalized Nash Equilibrium Problems

Generalized Nash equilibrium problem (GNEP) is an important model that has many applications in practice. However, a GNEP usually has multiple or even infinitely many Nash equilibrium points and it is not easy to choose a favorable solution from those equilibria. This paper considers a class of GNEP with some kind of separability. We first extend the so-called normalized equilibrium concept to the stationarity sense and then, we propose an approach to solve the normalized stationary points by reformulating the GNEP as a single optimization problem. We further demonstrate the proposed approach on a GNEP model in similar product markets.
