For variational inequalities, various merit functions, such as the gap function, the regularized gap function, the D-gap function and so on, have been proposed. These functions lead to equivalent optimization formulations and are used to optimization-based methods for solving variational inequalities. In this paper, we extend the regularized gap function and the D-gap functions for a quasi-variational inequality, which is a generalization of the variational inequality and is used to formulate generalized equilibrium problems. These extensions are shown to formulate equivalent optimization problems for quasi-variational inequalities and are shown to be continuous and directionally differentiable.

AbstractIn this paper, a class of generalized implicit inclusion problems is introduced, which can be regarded as a generalization of variational inequality problems, equilibrium problems, optimization problems and inclusion problems. Some existence results of solutions for such problems are obtained on noncompact subsets of Hausdorff topological vector spaces using the famous FKKM theorem. As applications, some existence results for vector equilibrium problems and vector variational inequalities on noncompact sets of Hausdorff topological vector spaces are given.

This paper aims to consider user equilibrium problems in transportation networks in the most complete and realistic situations. In fact, the presented model allows for the dependence of data on time, the presence of elastic travel demands, the capacity restrictions and delay effects. The equilibrium conditions for such a model are given and the equivalent formulation in terms of a quasi-variational inequality is discussed. Moreover, a theorem for the existence of solutions is shown and a numerical example is provided. Finally, some questions of stability are studied.

In this paper, we investigate error bounds of an inverse mixed quasi variational inequality problem in Hilbert spaces. Under the assumptions of strong monotonicity of function couple, we obtain some results related to error bounds using generalized residual gap functions. Each presented error bound is an effective estimation of the distance between a feasible solution and the exact solution. Because the inverse mixed quasi-variational inequality covers several kinds of variational inequalities, such as quasi-variational inequality, inverse mixed variational inequality and inverse quasi-variational inequality, the results obtained in this paper can be viewed as an extension of the corresponding results in the related literature.

We consider and study a new class of variational inequality, which is called the extended general mixed quas-variational inequality. We use the auxiliary principle technique to study the existence of a solution of the extended general mixed quasi-variational inequality. Several special cases are also discussed. Results proved in this paper may stimulate further research in this area.

The equilibrium problem includes many fundamental mathematical problems, e.g., optimization problems, saddle point problems, fixed point problems, economics problems, comple- mentarity problems, variational inequality problems, mechanics, engineering, and others as special cases. In this paper, properties of the solution set for generalized equilibrium problems with lower and upper bounds in FC-metric spaces are studied. In noncompact setting, we obtain that the solution set for generalized equilibrium problems with lower and upper bounds is nonempty and compact. Our results improve and generalize some recent results in the reference therein.

We prove a new strong convergence theorem for an element in the intersection of the set of common fixed points of a countable family of nonexpansive mappings, the set of solutions of some variational inequality problems, and the set of solutions of some equilibrium problems using a new iterative scheme. Our theorem generalizes and improves some recent results.
