Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to generalize the concept of α-well-posedness to the symmetric quasi-equilibrium problem. We establish some metric characterizations of α-well-posedness for the symmetric quasi-equilibrium problem. Under some suitable conditions, we prove that the α-well-posedness is equivalent to the existence and uniqueness of solution for the symmetric quasi-equilibrium problems. The corresponding concept of α-well-posedness in the generalized sense is also investigated for the symmetric quasi-equilibrium problem having more than one solution. The results presented in this paper generalize and improve some known results in the literature.
