Abstract

In this work, we study the following Generalized Variational Inequality Problem (for short, GVIP): Given a closed convex set K in a reflexive Banach space E with the dual E*, a multifunction T : K → 2E*, and a vector b ∈ E*, find over(x, ̄) ∈ K such that there exists over(u, ̄) ∈ T (over(x, ̄)) satisfying 〈 over(u, ̄) - b, y - over(x, ̄) 〉 ≥ 0, for all y ∈ K . By using generalized projection and the well-known Fan-KKM Theorem, we prove existence results for solutions of GVIP. Our results extend some recent results from the literature.
