Existence of Solutions of Systems of Generalized Implicit Vector Variational Inequalities

We consider five different types of systems of generalized vector variational inequalities and derive relationships among them. We introduce the concept of pseudomonotonicity for a family of multivalued maps and prove the existence of weak solutions of these problems under these pseudomonotonicity assumptions in the setting of Hausdorff topological vector spaces as well as real Banach spaces. We also establish the existence of a strong solution of our problems under lower semicontinuity for a family of multivalued maps involved in the formulation of the problems. By using a nonlinear scalar function, we introduce gap functions for our problems by which we can solve systems of generalized vector variational inequalities using optimization techniques.

Generalized Vector Variational Inequalities

In this paper, we introduce a generalized vector variational inequality problem (GVVIP) which extends and unifies vector variational inequalities as well as classical variational inequalities in the literature. The concepts of generalized C-pseudomonotone and generalized hemicontinuous operators are introduced. Some existence results for GVVIP are obtained with the assumptions of generalized C-pseudomonotonicity and generalized hemicontinuity. These results appear to be new and interesting. New existence results of the classical variational inequality are also obtained.     

Systems of generalized variational inequalities and their applications ∗

In this paper, we first introduce the system of generalized implicit variational inequalities and prove the existence of its solution. Then we derive existence results for systems of generalized variational and variational like inequalities and system of variational inequalities. As applications, we establish some existence results for a solution to the system of optimization problems which includes the Nash equilibrium problem as a special case     

Generalized Vector Quasi-Variational Inequality Problems Over Product Sets

In this paper we consider vector quasi-variational inequality problems over product sets (in short, VQVIP). Moreover we study generalizations of this model, namely problems of a system of vector quasi-variational inequalities (in short, SVQVIP), generalized vector quasi-variational inequality problems over product sets (in short, GVQVIP) and problems of a system of generalized vector quasi-variational inequalities (in short, SGVQVIP). We show that every solution of (VQVIP) (respectively, (GVQVIP)) is a solution of (SVQVIP) (respectively, (SGVQVIP)). By defining relatively pseudomonotone and relatively maximal pseudomonotone maps and by employing a known fixed point theorem, we establish the existence of a solution of (VQVIP) and (SVQVIP). These existence results are then used to derive the existence of a solution of (GVQVIP) and (SGVQVIP), respectively, The results of this paper extend recent results in the literature. They are obtained in a more general setting.     

System of nonsmooth variational inequalities with applications

In this paper, we consider a system of vector variational inequalities and a system of nonsmooth variational inequalities defined by means of Clarke directional derivative. We also consider the Nash equilibrium problem with vector pay-offs and its scalarized form. We present some relations among these systems and problems. The existence results for a solution of system of nonsmooth variational inequalities are given. As a consequence, we derive an existence result for a solution of Nash equilibrium problem with vector pay-offs.     

A non-smooth version of Minty variational principle

The aim of this article is to study the relationship between generalized Minty vector variational inequalities and non-smooth vector optimization problems. Under pseudoconvexity or pseudomonotonicity, we establish the relationship between an efficient solution of a non-smooth vector optimization problem and a generalized Minty vector variational inequality. This offers a non-smooth version of existing Minty variational principle.     

Generalized Vector Variational Inequalities over Countable Product of Sets

In this paper, we consider vector variational inequalities with set-valued mappings over countable product sets in a real Banach space setting. By employing concepts of relative pseudomonotonicity, we establish several existence results for generalized vector variational inequalities and for systems of generalized vector variational inequalities. These results strengthen previous existence results which were based on the usual monotonicity type assumptions     

Weighted variational inequalities in normed spaces

In this article, we consider weighted variational inequalities over a product of sets and a system of weighted variational inequalities in normed spaces. We extend most results established in Ansari, Q.H., Khan, Z. and Siddiqi, A.H., (Weighted variational inequalities, Journal of Optimization Theory and Applications, 127(2005), pp. 263–283), from Euclidean spaces ordered by their respective non-negative orthants to normed spaces ordered by their respective non-trivial closed convex cones with non-empty interiors.     

Generalized solutions of quasi variational inequalities

This paper deals with multivalued quasi variational inequalities with pseudo-monotone and monotone maps. The primary objective of this work is to show that the notion of generalized solutions can be employed to investigate multivalued pseudo-monotone quasi variational inequalities. It is a well-known fact that a quasi variational inequality can conveniently be posed as a fixed point problem through the so-called variational selection. For pseudo-monotone maps, the associated variational selection is a nonconvex map, and the fixed point theorems can only be applied under restrictive assumptions on the data of quasi variational inequalities. On the other hand, the generalized solutions are defined by posing a minimization problem which can be solved by a variant of classical Weierstrass theorem. It turns out that far less restrictive assumptions on the data are needed in this case. To emphasis on the strong difference between a classical solution and a generalized solution, we also give a new existence theorem for quasi variational inequalities with monotone maps. The main existence result is proved under a milder coercivity condition. We also relax a few other conditions from the monotone map. Due to its flexibility, it seems that the notion of generalized solutions can be employed to study quasi variational inequalities for other classes of maps as well.

Gap Functions and Existence of Solutions to Set-Valued Vector Variational Inequalities

The variational inequality problem with set-valued mappings is very useful in economics and nonsmooth optimization. In this paper, we study the existence of solutions and the formulation of solution methods for vector variational inequalities (VVI) with set-valued mappings. We introduce gap functions and establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a solution of the VVI. It is shown that the optimization problem formulated by using gap functions can be transformed into a semi-infinite programming problem. We investigate also the existence of a solution for the generalized VVI with a set-valued mapping by virtue of the existence of a solution of the VVI with a single-valued function and a continuous selection theorem.     

On system of generalized vector variational inequalities

In this paper, we introduce a new system of generalized vector variational inequalities with variable preference. This extends the model of system of generalized variational inequalities due to Pang and Konnov independently as well as system of vector equilibrium problems due to Ansari, Schaible and Yao. We establish existence of solutions to the new system under weaker conditions that include a new partial diagonally convexity and a weaker notion than continuity. As applications, we derive existence results for both systems of vector variational-like inequalities and vector optimization problems with variable preference.     

Existence of Solutions to Generalized Vector Quasi-variational-like Inequalities with Set-valued Mappings

In this paper, we introduce and study a class of generalized vector quasivariational-like inequality problems, which includes generalized nonlinear vector variational inequality problems, generalized vector variational inequality problems and generalized vector variational-like inequality problems as special cases. We use the maximal element theorem with an escaping sequence to prove the existence results of a solution for generalized vector quasi-variational-like inequalities without any monotonicity conditions in the setting of locally convex topological vector space.

From Scalar to Vector Equilibrium Problems in the Quasimonotone Case

In a unified approach, existence results for quasimonotone vector equilibrium problems and quasimonotone (multivalued) vector variational inequality problems are derived from an existence result for a scalar equilibrium problem involving two (rather than one) quasimonotone bifunctions. The results in the vector case are not only obtained in a new way, but they are also stronger versions of earlier existence results.

Duality Results for Generalized Vector Variational Inequalities with Set-Valued Maps

In this paper, we introduce new dual problems of generalized vector variational inequality problems with set-valued maps and we discuss a link between the solution sets of the primal and dual problems. The notion of solutions in each of these problems is introduced via the concepts of efficiency, weak efficiency or Benson proper efficiency in vector optimization. We provide also examples showing that some earlier duality results for vector variational inequality may not be true. This work was supported by the Brain Korea 21 Project in 2006.     

A Scalarization Approach for Vector Variational Inequalities with Applications

We consider an approach to convert vector variational inequalities into an equivalent scalar variational inequality problem with a set-valued cost mapping. Being based on this property, we give an equivalence result between weak and strong solutions of set-valued vector variational inequalities and suggest a new gap function for vector variational inequalities. Additional examples of applications in vector optimization, vector network equilibrium and vector migration equilibrium problems are also given Mathematics Subject Classification(2000). 49J40, 65K10, 90C29     

Regularization of quasi-variational inequalities

An ill-posed quasi-variational inequality with contaminated data can be stabilized by employing the elliptic regularization. Under suitable conditions, a sequence of bounded regularized solutions converges strongly to a solution of the original quasi-variational inequality. Moreover, the conditions that ensure the boundedness of regularized solutions, become sufficient solvability conditions. It turns out that the regularization theory is quite strong for quasi-variational inequalities with set-valued monotone maps but restrictive for generalized pseudo-monotone maps. The results are quite general and are applicable to ill-posed variational inequalities, hemi-variational inequalities, inverse problems, and split feasibility problem, among others.
