We consider an oligopolistic market with a leader, finitely many followers and a multivalued inverse demand function. By assuming that there exist cooperative behaviors of followers, we introduce the notions of Stackelberg Cournot equilibria for markets with nontransferable utilities and transferable utilities. We shall prove their existence theorems in our models.
