Nash equilibrium seeking under partial decision information: Monotonicity, smoothness and proximal-point algorithms (2206.11568v1)

Abstract: We address Nash equilibrium problems in a partial-decision information scenario, where each agent can only exchange information with some neighbors, while its cost function possibly depends on the strategies of all agents. We characterize the relation between several monotonicity and smoothness conditions postulated in the literature. Furthermore, we prove convergence of a preconditioned proximal point algorithm, under a restricted monotonicity property that allows for a non-Lipschitz, non-continuous game mapping.
