On vector variational inequalities. (English) Zbl 0848.49012
Summary: The concept of weakly $C$-pseudomonotone operator is introduced. By employing the Fan lemma, we establish several existence results. The new results extend and unify existence results of vector variational inequalities for monotone operators under a Banach space setting. In particular, existence results for the generalized vector complementarity problem with weakly $C$-pseudomonotone operators in a Banach space are obtained.
