Abstract
In this paper, we investigate weak vector solutions and global vector solutions to a generalized Ky Fan inequality. Under new assumptions, which are weaker than the assumption of strict C-mappings, we establish the lower semicontinuity of the solution mappings to a parametric generalized Ky Fan inequality by using a scalarization method. These results extend the corresponding ones in the literature. Some examples are given to illustrate our results.
