Linear complementarity problems are fundamental in various mathematical fields, and it is widely recognized that these problems have a unique solution if and only if the matrix related to them is a P-matrix. However, determining whether a matrix is a P-matrix can be extremely challenging or even impossible, especially for large matrices. In this paper, we present a method for establishing the existence and uniqueness of the solution to linear complementarity problems without the need for P-matrix verification. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this work, we model the relationship between prey and predators by studying the interactive behavior of this prey-predator model and using the change of prey. The objective is to maximize the profit function of each predator by seeking the strategy provided by each predator to maximize its profit. To do so, we maximize this utility function being constrained by balance equations between biomass and trophic, and we show that this last problem is completely equivalent to finding the generalized Nash equilibrium point. To calculate it, we use the conditions of Karush-Kuhn-Tucker and we show that it is indeed a linear complementarity problem. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The linear complementarity problem is receiving a lot of attention and has been studied extensively. Recently, El foutayeni et al. have contributed many works that aim to solve this mysterious problem. However, many results exist and give good approximations of the linear complementarity problem solutions. The major drawback of many existing methods resides in the fact that, for large systems, they require a large number of operations during each iteration; also, they consume large amounts of memory and computation time. This is the reason which drives us to create an algorithm with a finite number of steps to solve this kind of problem with a reduced number of iterations compared to existing methods. In addition, we consider a new class of matrices called the E-matrix. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
