Vector variational-like inequalities with generalized bifunctions defined on nonconvex sets (Q923944)

In this paper, the nonemptiness and compactness of solution sets for Stampacchia vector variational-like inequalities (for short, SVVLIs) and Minty vector variational-like inequalities (for short, MVVLIs) with generalized bifunctions defined on nonconvex sets are investigated by introducing the concepts of generalized weak cone-pseudomonotonicity and generalized (proper) cone-suboddness. The equivalent relations between a solution of SVVLIs and MVVLIs, and a generalized weakly efficient solution of vector optimization problems are established under the assumptions of generalized pseudoconvexity and generalized invexity in the sense of the Clarke generalized directional derivative.
