Page 41 - The work described in this paper was partially supported by a grant from the Research Grants Council of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, China [Project No.
Page 306 - The algorithm is guaranteed to converge provided that the function F that enters the variational inequality is monotone and Lipschitz continuous (and that a solution exists). The algorithm is the modified projection method of Korpelevich (1977).
Page 292 - The manufacturers are assumed to compete in a non-cooperative fashion. Also, it is assumed that the production cost functions and the transaction cost functions for each manufacturer are continuous and convex. The governing optimization/equilibrium concept underlying non-cooperative behavior is that of Nash (1950, 1951), which states, in this context, that each manufacturer will determine his optimal production quantity and shipments, given the optimal ones of the competitors. Hence, the optimality...
Page 304 - Theorem 6 it follows that, under the above conditions, the equilibrium product shipment pattern between the manufacturers and the retailers, as well as the equilibrium price pattern at the retailers, is unique. Theorem 7: Lipschitz Continuity The function F that enters the variational inequality problem (30) is Lipschitz continuous, that is, \\F(X') - F(X")\\ < L\\X' - X"\\, VX', X" & K, with L > 0, (55) under the following conditions: (i).
Page 306 - Proof. According to Korpelevich (1977), the modified projection method converges to the solution of the variational inequality problem of the form...
Page 296 - ... which represents the non-negativity assumption on the variables. Here, we also assume that the retailers compete in a non-cooperative manner so that each maximizes his profits, given the actions of the other retailers. Note that, at this point, we consider that retailers seek to determine the amount that they wish to obtain from the manufacturers and from the distributors.
Page 301 - In order to prove that g(s, p) is monotone with respect to 5 and p, we only need to show that its Jacobian matrix is positive semidefinite, which will be the case if all eigenvalues of the symmetric part of the Jacobian matrix are nonnegative real numbers.
