Abstract

In this paper, we establish sufficient conditions for guaranteeing finite termination of an arbitrary algorithm for solving a variational inequality problem in a Banach space. Applying these conditions, it shows that sequences generated by the proximal point algorithm terminate at solutions in a finite number of iterations.
