Bilevel programming methods for computing single-leader-multi-follower equilibria in normal-form and polymatrix games [PDF]
The concept of leader-follower (or Stackelberg) equilibrium plays a central role in a number of real-world applications bordering on mathematical optimization and game theory.

A Tractable Multi-Leader Multi-Follower Peak-Load-Pricing Model with Strategic Interaction [PDF]
While single-level Nash equilibrium problems are quite well understood nowadays, less is known about multi-leader multi-follower games. However, these have important applications, e.g., in the analysis of electricity and gas markets, where often a ...

A Survey on Mixed-Integer Programming Techniques in Bilevel Optimization
Bilevel optimization is a field of mathematical programming in which some variables are constrained to be the solution of another optimization problem. As a consequence, bilevel optimization is able to model hierarchical decision processes.

On a Class of Multistage Stochastic Hierarchical Problems [PDF]
In this paper, following the multistage stochastic approach proposed by Rockafellar and Wets, we analyze a class of multistage stochastic hierarchical problems: the Multistage Stochastic Optimization Problem with Quasi-Variational Inequality Constraints.

Behavioral pricing of energy swing options by stochastic bilevel optimization [PDF]
Holders of energy swing options are free to specify the amounts of energy to be delivered on short notice, paying a fixed price per unit delivered. Due to the complexity of potential demand patterns, risk elimination by replication of these contract at ...
