Pseudomonotone Complementarity Problems and Variational Inequalities

  • Chapter
Handbook of Generalized Convexity and Generalized Monotonicity

Part of the book series: Nonconvex Optimization and Its Applications ((NOIA,volume 76))

Abstract

In this chapter, we report recent results mainly on existence for complementarity problems and variational inequalities in infinite-dimensional spaces under generalized monotonicity, especially (algebraic) pseudomonotonicity. Variational inequalities associated to a topological pseudomonotone operator have been also considered and some possible extensions of complementarity problems and variational inequalities have been included. Finally some discussions on the equivalence of complementarity problems for pseudomonotone operators are given.

This research was supported by a grant from the National Science of the Republic of China.
