Existence of solution to a new class of coupled variational-hemivariational inequalities (2309.04597v1)

Abstract: The objective of this paper is to introduce and study a complicated nonlinear system, called coupled variational-hemivariational inequalities, which is described by a highly nonlinear coupled system of inequalities on Banach spaces. We establish the nonemptiness and compactness of the solution set to the system. We apply a new method of proof based on a multivalued version of the Tychonoff fixed point principle in a Banach space combined with the generalized monotonicity arguments, and elements of the nonsmooth analysis. Our results improve and generalize some earlier theorems obtained for a very particular form of the system.
