Monotone operator theory has been extensively developed (mainly in Hilbert and reflexive Banach spaces) during the last fifty-five years or so with manifold applications to partial differential equations, optimization theory, dynamical systems and variational inequalities, see, for example, the illuminating survey by \textit{J. M. Borwein} [Optim. Lett. 4, No. 4, 473--490 (2010; Zbl 1214.47043)]. The authors of the informative present paper study certain properties of monotone operators in topological vector spaces under appropriate continuity assumptions. They first establish an extension of Minty's Lemma [\textit{G. J. Minty}, Duke Math. J. 29, 341--346 (1962; Zbl 0111.31202)] to general topological vector spaces and then prove several results regarding single-valuedness, maximal monotonicity and closedness of such operators. They also extend a classical continuity result of \textit{T. Kato} [Bull. Am. Math. Soc. 70, 548--550 (1964; Zbl 0123.10701)] from Banach spaces to locally convex Hausdorff spaces.
