Abstract

We show that projected solutions of a generalized game correspond to classical ones of an auxiliary generalized game obtained by doubling the number of players. Based on this reformulation and using known results for the existence of classical solutions, we deduce some new existence results for projected solutions of generalized Nash equilibrium problems and quasivariational inequalities.
