Abstract

In this paper, by virtue of the nonlinear scalarization function commonly known as the Gerstewitz function in the theory of vector optimization, Hölder continuity of the unique solution to a parametric vector quasiequilibrium problem is studied based on nonlinear scalarization approach, under three different kinds of monotonicity hypotheses. The globally Lipschitz property of the nonlinear scalarization function is fully employed. Our approach is totally different from the ones used in the literature, and our results not only generalize but also improve the corresponding ones in some related works.
