Abstract

We describe a novel application of the difference of convex function algorithm (DCA) to a variety of equilibrium problems using the mixed complementarity problem (MCP) format. These problems involve bilinear constraints, i.e., complementarity and can be approximated iteratively via convex subproblems using DCA. We develop the necessary theory to make this possible and showcase how it works on several MCPs in energy and other infrastructure.
