Convergence of unilateral problems for monotone operators

From MaRDI portal





The authors generalize the results of U. Mosco, H. Attouch, L. Boccardo and F. Murat on the convergence of solutions of variational inequalities where the operators, right-hand sides and corresponding convex sets are perturbed. Let \(K_ b\) be a sequence of nonempty unilateral closed convex sets which converges to K in the sense of Mosco in \(H^ 0_{1,p}\), let maximal monotone operators \(A_ h\) G-converge to A, and assume that \(u_ h\) and \(g_ h\) satisfy the variational inequality (1) \(u_ h\in K_ h\), \(g_ h\in A_ hu_ h\), \(<-div g_ h,v-u_ h>\geq <f_ h,v-u_ h>\) for all \(v\in K_ h\). Assume that (2) \(f_ h\to f\) strongly in \(H_{-l,q}\), \(u_ h\to u\) weakly in \(H^ 0_{1,p}\) and \(g_ h\to g\) weakly in \((L_ q)^ n\). Then u and g satisfy the variational inequality (3) \(u\in K\), \(g\in Au\), \(<-div g,\quad v-u>\geq <f,v-u>\) for all \(v\in K\) and \(
\to
\) in R. The study of this interesting generalization was motivated by applications to the homogenization problems.
