On the solution existence of implicit quasivariational inequalities with discontinuous multifunctions

In this article, we established some solution existence theorems for implicit quasivariational inequalities. We first established some results in finite-dimensional spaces and then a solution existence result in infinite-dimensional spaces was derived. Our theorems are proved for discontinuous mappings and sets which may be unbounded. The results presented in this article are improvements of results in Cubiotti, and Yao (Cubiotti, P. and Yao, J.C., 1997, Discontinuous implicit quasi-variational inequalities with applications to fuzzy mappings.

New systems of generalized quasi-variational inclusions in FC-spaces and applications

In this paper, we study some new systems of generalized quasi-variational inclusion problems in FC-spaces without convexity structure.By applying an existence theorem of maximal elements of set-valued mappings due to the author, some new existence theorems of solutions for the systems of generalized quasi-variational inclusion problems are proved in noncompact FC-spaces. As applications, some existence results of solutions for the system of quasi-optimization problems and mathematical programs with the systems of generalized quasi-variational inclusion constraints are obtained in FC-spaces.

Sensitivity analysis for parametric generalized implicit quasi-variational-like inclusions involving P-η-accretive mappings

In this paper, using proximal-point mapping technique of P-η-accretive mapping and the property of the fixed-point set of set-valued contractive mappings, we study the behavior and sensitivity analysis of the solution set of a parametric generalized implicit quasi-variational-like inclusion involving P-η-accretive mapping in real uniformly smooth Banach space. Further, under suitable conditions, we discuss the Lipschitz continuity of the solution set with respect to the parameter. The technique and results presented in this paper can be viewed as extension of the techniques and corresponding results given in [R.P. Agarwal, Y.-J. Cho, N.-J.

On variational inclusion and common fixed point problems in Hilbert spaces with applications

The purpose of this paper is to introduce a general iterative method for finding a common element of the solution set of quasi-variational inclusion problems and of the common fixed point set of an infinite family of nonexpansive mappings in the framework Hilbert spaces. Strong convergence of the sequences generated by the purposed iterative scheme is obtained.     

A Class of Generalized Evolutionary Problems Driven by Variational Inequalities and Fractional Operators

This paper is devoted to a generalized evolution system called fractional partial differential variational inequality which consists of a mixed quasi-variational inequality combined with a fractional partial differential equation in a Banach space. Invoking the pseudomonotonicity of multivalued operators and a generalization of the Knaster-Kuratowski-Mazurkiewicz theorem, first, we prove that the solution set of the mixed quasi-variational inequality involved in system is nonempty, closed and convex. Next, the measurability and upper semicontinuity for the mixed quasi-variational inequality with respect to the time variable and state variable are established. Finally, the existence of mild solutions for the system is delivered. The approach is based on the theory of operator semigroups, the Bohnenblust-Karlin fixed point principle for multivalued mappings, and theory of fractional operators.

     

An iterative method for generalized set-valued nonlinear mixed quasi-variational inequalities

This paper presents an iterative method for solving the generalized nonlinear set-valued mixed quasi-variational inequality, a problem class that was introduced by Huang et al. (Comp. Math. Appl. 40 (2–3) (2000) 205–215). The method incorporates step size controls that enable application to problems where certain set-valued mappings do not always map to nonempty closed bounded sets.     

Numerical solution of quasi-variational inequalities arising in stochastic game theory

We study the finite-difference approximation for the quasi-variational inequalities for a stochastic game involving discrete actions of the players and continuous and discrete payoff. We prove convergence of iterative schemes for the solution of the discretized quasi-variational inequalities, with estimates of the rate of convergence (via contraction mappings) in two particular cases. Further, we prove stability of the finite-difference schemes, and convergence of the solution of the discrete problems to the solution of the continuous problem as the discretization mesh goes to zero. We provide a direct interpretation of the discrete problems in terms of finite-state, continuous-time Markov processes.     

Collective fixed points, generalized games and systems of generalized quasi-variational inclusion problems in topological spaces

In this paper, by using a fixed point theorem for expansive set-valued mappings with noncompact and nonconvex domains and ranges in topological spaces due to the author, we first prove a collective fixed point theorem and an existence theorem of equilibrium points for a generalized game. As applications, some new existence theorems of solutions for systems of generalized quasi-variational inclusion problems are established in noncompact topological spaces. Our results are different from known results in the literature.     

Quasi-Equilibrium Problems and Fixed Point Theorems of Separately l.s.c and u.s.c Mappings

In this paper, we apply our new results on quasi-variational inequality problems to generalized quasi-equilibrium problems. Some su?cient conditions on the existence of solutions are shown. In particular, we establish several results on the existence of solutions to fixed points of separately lower and upper semicontinuous (lower and lower, upper and upper) mappings.These generalize some well-known fixed point theorems obtained by previous authors as Browder and Ky Fan, Wu, et al., etc.

Inverse problems for quasi-variational inequalities

In this short note, our aim is to investigate the inverse problem of parameter identification in quasi-variational inequalities. We develop an abstract nonsmooth regularization approach that subsumes the total variation regularization and permits the identification of discontinuous parameters. We study the inverse problem in an optimization setting using the output-least squares formulation. We prove the existence of a global minimizer and give convergence results for the considered optimization problem. We also discretize the identification problem for quasi-variational inequalities and provide the convergence analysis for the discrete problem. We give an application to the gradient obstacle problem.

Sensitivity Analysis of Multiobjective Optimization Problems with Parameterized Quasi-Variational Inequalities

This paper mainly establishes the sensitivity analysis of a multiobjective optimization problem with parameterized quasi-variational inequalities (QVIs). Using the (regular) coderivative of the associated epigraphical multifunction, the (regular) subdifferentials of the efficient frontier maps are estimated, which involve the (regular) coderivatives of the solution mapping to the parameterized QVIs. Under the linear independent constraint qualification, the defined auxiliary set-valued mappings in the parameterized QVIs are clam. The detailed formulae of subdifferentials of the efficient frontier maps are obtained and examples are simultaneously provided for analyzing and illustrating the obtained results.

Grazing phenomena in a periodically forced,friction-induced,linear oscillator

The criterion for grazing motions in a dry-friction oscillator is obtained from the local theory of non-smooth dynamical systems on the connectable and accessible domains. The generic mappings for such a dry-friction oscillator are also introduced. The sufficient and necessary conditions for grazing at the final states of mappings are expressed. The initial and final switching sets of grazing mapping, varying with system parameters, are illustrated for the grazing parametric characteristics. The initial and grazing, switching manifolds in the switching sets are defined through grazing mappings. Finally, numerical illustrations of grazing motions are very easily carried out with help of the analytical predictions. This paper provides a comprehensive investigation of grazing motions in the dry-friction oscillator for a better understanding of the grazing mechanism of such a discontinuous system. The investigation based on the local singularity theory is more intuitive and efficient than the discontinuous mapping techniques.     

Discontinuous Galerkin Methods for Solving a Frictional Contact Problem with Normal Compliance

Abstract

Several discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods are introduced for solving a frictional contact problem with normal compliance, which is modeled as a quasi-variational inequality. Consistency, boundedness, and stability are established for the DG methods. Two numerical examples are presented to illustrate the performance of the DG methods.
