An operator T on \(H^ 1_ 0\) is said to be quasi-monotone, if for all z, u, v, \(w\in H^ 1_ 0\), \(<Tu-Tv,w-z>\geq 0.\) We note that quasi- monotonicity implies monotonicity of the operator T, that is \(<Tu-Tv,u- v>\geq 0\), for all \(u,v\in H^ 1_ 0\). By generalizing the definition of quasi-monotonicity of T on a Banach space, the author shows that a quasi- monotone operator is a constant. However, for nonzero elements of a Banach space, the quasi-monotone operators are not constant.
