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...

The existence of an equilibrium in an extended Walrasian economic model of exchange is confirmed constructively by an iterative scheme. In this scheme, truncated variational inequality problems are solved in which the agents’ budget constraints are relaxed by a penalty representation. Epi-convergence arguments are employed to show that, in the limit, a virtual equilibrium is obtained, if not ac...

The paper provides some characterizations of (strictly) pseudomonotone and (strictly) monotone functions by properties of the solutions to the associated variational inequality problems. Moreover, an economic interpretation of the results is offered.
