Convergence Analysis of Non-Strongly-Monotone Stochastic Quasi-Variational Inequalities (2401.03076v2)

Abstract: While Variational Inequality (VI) is a well-established mathematical framework that subsumes Nash equilibrium and saddle-point problems, less is known about its extension, Quasi-Variational Inequalities (QVI). QVI allows for cases where the constraint set changes as the decision variable varies allowing for a more versatile setting. In this paper, we propose extra-gradient and gradient-based methods for solving a class of monotone Stochastic Quasi-Variational Inequalities (SQVI) and establish a rigorous convergence rate analysis for these methods. Our approach not only advances the theoretical understanding of SQVI but also demonstrates its practical applicability. Specifically, we highlight its effectiveness in reformulating and solving problems such as generalized Nash Equilibrium, bilevel optimization, and saddle-point problems with coupling constraints.
