Abstract

This paper deals with the existence of solutions to equilibrium and quasi-equilibrium problems without any convexity assumption. Coverage includes some equivalences to the Ekeland variational principle for bifunctions and basic facts about transfer lower continuity. An application is given to systems of quasi-equilibrium problems.
