Existence of equilibria of generalized games without compactness and paracompactness. (English) Zbl 0859.90140
The paper deals with generalized games of infinitely many players. The main results prove the existence of equilibria for qualitative and generalized games under relatively general assumptions not demanding the compactness and paracompactness in the topological vector space of strategies. Moreover, the existence is derived also for generalized games in which the constraint correspondences are only lower semicontinuous without assumption on open graphs.
