We show that the variational inequality $VI(C,A)$ has aunique solution for a relaxed $(gamma , r)$-cocoercive,$mu$-Lipschitzian mapping $A: Cto H$ with $r>gamma mu^2$, where$C$ is a nonempty closed convex subset of a Hilbert space $H$. Fromthis result, it can be derived that, for example, the recentalgorithms given in the references of this paper, despite theirbecoming more complicated, are not...
