Abstract

The main purpose of this paper is to study the sensitivity analysis for nonlinear set-valued variational equations based on -resolvent operator technique. The obtained results encompass a broad model of results.

1. Introduction

The set-valued inclusions problem, which was initiated by Di Bella [1] and Huang et al. [2, 3], is a useful extension of the mathematical analysis and variational equation and is important context in the set-valued equations. Verma [4], Huang [5], Fang and Huang [6], Lan et al. [7], Khan and Salahuddin [8, 9], Li et al. [10], and Yen and Lee [11] introduced the concepts of -monotone, -monotone, -monotone operator, -accretive mappings, and resolvent operator associated with them, respectively. Dafermos [12] studied the sensitivity property of solutions of particular kinds of variational inequality on parameter which takes values on an open subset of Euclidean space . Tobin [13], Verma [14, 15], Lee and Salahuddin [3], Kyparisis [16], Moudafi [17], Noor [18], Robinson [19], Yen and Lee [11], and Hussain et al. [20] studied the sensitivity analysis of various types of variational inequalities.

In this paper, we present the sensitivity analysis for -accretive variational equations based on the -resolvent operator technique. The obtained results generalize a wide range of results on the sensitivity analysis for nonlinear set-valued variational equations in Banach spaces.

3. Sensitivity Analysis

Let , let , and let be three set-valued mappings, and let a nonlinear mapping be an -accretive mapping with respect to first argument, and let be the mapping, where is a nonempty open subset of . Let be the single-valued mappings. Furthermore, let be a nonlinear mapping. Then, the problem of finding an element , , , such that where is the set-valued parameter is called a generalized set-valued variational inclusions.

The solvability of problem (21) depends on the equivalence between (21) and the problem of finding the fixed point of the associated resolvent operator.
