Abstract

In this paper we consider lexicographic vector equilibrium problems in metric spaces. Sufficient conditions for a family of such problems to be stable in the  sense of upper and lower semicontinuity of the solution sets are established. Moreover, we also derive necessary and/or sufficient conditions for lexicographic vector equilibrium problems to be well-posed  at the reference point. Many examples are provided to ensure the essentialness of the imposed assumptions.
Keywords: Lexicographic order, Equilibrium problems, Stability, (Uniquely/Hadamard) well-posedness, Semicontinuity, Continuity
