Abstract
The paper aims to introduce inverse tensor variational inequalities and analyze their application to an economic control equilibrium model. More precisely, some existence and uniqueness results are established and the well-posedness analysis is investigated. Moreover, the Tikhonov regularization method is extended to tensor inverse problems to study them when they are ill-posed. Lastly, the policymaker’s point of view for the oligopolistic market equilibrium problem is introduced. The equivalence between the equilibrium conditions and a suitable inverse tensor variational inequality is established.
