Eigenvalue results for pseudomonotone perturbations of maximal monotone operators (Q352740)

In this work, the authors deal with the inclusion \[ 0\in T(x)+\lambda C(x), \] where \(T : X\rightrightarrows X^*\) is a maximal monotone multivalued operator, \(C:D(C)\subset X\to X^*\) is a quasibounded single-valued operator, and \(X\) is reflexive. An \textit{eigensolution} of such inclusion is a pair \((\lambda_0,x_0)\), where \(\lambda_0>0\) is called an \textit{eigenvalue} and \(x_0\in D(T)\cap D(C)\) is called an \textit{eigenvector}. Their main result establishes existence of eigensolutions in the case when \(C\) is generalized pseudomonotone and densely defined, along with some technical conditions. Furthermore, the authors address the existence of branches of eigensolutions, that is, the existence of a certain \(r_0>0\) such that, for every \(r\geq r_0\), there exists an eigenvector with norm exactly \(r\). Finally, they study the surjectivity of the operator \(T+\lambda C\) when \(\lambda\) is not an eigenvalue of the pair \((T,C)\).
