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

A Class of Differential Vector Variational Inequalities in Finite Dimensional Spaces

In this paper, we introduce and study a class of differential vector variational inequalities in finite dimensional Euclidean spaces. We establish a relationship between differential vector variational inequalities and differential scalar variational inequalities. Under various conditions, we obtain the existence and linear growth of solutions to the scalar variational inequalities. In particular we prove existence theorems for Carathéodory weak solutions of the differential vector variational inequalities. Furthermore, we give a convergence result on Euler time-dependent procedure for solving the initial-value differential vector variational inequalities.

Generalized Vector Variational and Quasi-Variational Inequalities with Operator Solutions

In a recent paper, Domokos and Kolumbán introduced variational inequalities with operator solutions to provide a suitable unified approach to several kinds of variational inequality and vector variational inequality in Banach spaces. Inspired by their work, in this paper, we further develop the new scheme of vector variational inequalities with operator solutions from the single-valued case into the multi-valued one. We prove the existence of solutions of generalized vector variational inequalities with operator solutions and generalized quasi-vector variational inequalities with operator solutions. Some applications to generalized vector variational inequalities and generalized quasi-vector variational inequalities in a normed space are also provided.

Existence of Solutions of Generalized Vector Variational Inequalities in Reflexive Banach Spaces

The purpose of this paper is to study the solvability for a class of generalized vector variational inequalities in reflexive Banach spaces. Utilizing the KKM-Fan lemma and the Nadler’s result, we prove the solvability results for this class of generalized vector variational inequalities for monotone vector multifuctions. On the other hand, we first introduce the concepts of complete semicontinuity and strong semicontinuity for vector multifunctions. Then we prove the solvability for this class of generalized vector variational inequalities without monotonicity assumption by using these concepts and by applying the Brouwer fixed point theorem. The results in this paper are extension and improvement of the corresponding results in Huang and Fang (2006).

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.

On Approximately Star-Shaped Functions and Approximate Vector Variational Inequalities

In this paper, we consider a vector optimization problem involving approximately star-shaped functions. We formulate approximate vector variational inequalities in terms of Fréchet subdifferentials and solve the vector optimization problem. Under the assumptions of approximately straight functions, we establish necessary and sufficient conditions for a solution of approximate vector variational inequality to be an approximate efficient solution of the vector optimization problem. We also consider the corresponding weak versions of the approximate vector variational inequalities and establish various results for approximate weak efficient solutions.     

Existence of Solutions and Variational Principles for Generalized Vector Systems

By means of generalized KKM theory, we prove a result on the existence of solutions and we establish general variational principles, that is, vector optimization formulations of set-valued maps for vector generalized systems. A perturbation function is involved in general variational principles. We extend the theory of gap functions for vector variational inequalities to vector generalized systems and we prove that the solution sets of the related vector optimization problems of set-valued maps contain the solution sets of vector generalized systems. A further vector optimization problem is defined in such a way that its solution set coincides with the solution set of a weak vector generalized system.

On F-Implicit Generalized Vector Variational Inequalities

In this paper, we study the F-implicit generalized (weak) case for vector variational inequalities in real topological vector spaces. Both weak and strong solutions are considered. These two sets of solutions coincide whenever the mapping T is single-valued, but not set-valued. We use the Ferro minimax theorem to discuss the existence of strong solutions for F-implicit generalized vector variational inequalities.     

Vector variational inequality with pseudoconvexity on Hadamard manifolds

In this paper, we give some properties for nondifferentiable pseudoconvex functions on Hadamard manifolds, and discuss the connections between pseudoconvex functions and pseudomonotone vector fields. Moreover, we study Minty and Stampacchia vector variational inequalities, which are formulated in terms of Clarke subdifferential for nonsmooth functions. Some relations between the vector variational inequalities and nonsmooth vector optimization problems are established under pseudoconvexity or pseudomonotonicity. The results presented in this paper extend some corresponding known results given in the literatures.
