Abstract

In this paper, we first rove the strict quasi-concavity of maximizing function, and next prove a new maximum theorem using Fan’s generalization of the classical KKM theorem. Also an existence theorem of social equilibrium can be proved when an additional assumption on the constraint correspondence is assumed. Finally, we give illustrative two examples of constrained optimization problems.
