The talk is based on the joint work with Professor Carlos Biasi
Let \(X\) be a nonempty set and \(f : X \times X \to \mathbb{R}\) a real function such that \(f(x, x) = 0\), for all \(x \in X\). The classical equilibrium problem (abbreviated, EP) consists of

finding \(\tilde{x} \in X\) such that \(f(\tilde{x}, x) \geq 0\) for every \(x \in X\).

Our main goal is to show the existence of the weak local equilibrium via the Lefschetz fixed point theorem for admissible multivalued mappings.
