Abstract

A quasi-variational inequality is proved in paracompact setting which generalizes the results of Zhou Chen and Aubin. As applications, two existence theorems on the solutions of optimization problems and social equilibria of metagames are showed which improve and extend the recent results of Kaczynski-Zeidan and Aubin.
