Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the proximal point algorithm (in short PPA) for variational inequalities with pseudomonotone vector fields on Hadamard manifolds. Under weaker assumptions than monotonicity, we show that the sequence generated by PPA is well defined and prove that the sequence converges to a solution of variational inequality, whenever it exists. The results presented in this paper generalize and improve some corresponding known results given in literatures.
