The author of this interesting paper introduces a general auxiliary problem principle which is applied to the approximation-solvability of the class of nonlinear variational inequality problems (NVIP) involving partially relaxed monotone mappings. An element \(x^{\ast }\) such that \[ \langle T(x^{\ast }),x-x^{\ast } \rangle +f(x)-f(x^{\ast })\geq 0, \quad\forall \;x\in K \] is found. Here \(T:K\to R^n\) is a mapping from a nonempty closed convex subset \(K\) of \(R^n\) into \(R^n\), and \(f: K\to R\) is a continuous convex functional on \(K\). The general auxiliary problem principle is described as follows: for given iterate \(x^k\in K\) and for a constant \(\rho >0\), determine \(x^{k+1}\) such that \[ \langle T(x^{k })+h'(x^{k+1})-h'(x^{k}),x-x^{k+1} \rangle +\rho [f(x)-f(x^{k+1})]\geq 0 \quad \forall \;x\in K \] and for \(k\geq 0\), where \(h:K\to R^n\) is \(m\)-times continuously Fréchet-differentiable on \(K\).
