On Well-Posedness of Some Constrained Variational Problems

Abstract

By considering the new forms of the notions of lower semicontinuity, pseudomonotonicity, hemicontinuity and monotonicity of the considered scalar multiple integral functional, in this paper we study the well-posedness of a new class of variational problems with variational inequality constraints. More specifically, by defining the set of approximating solutions for the class of variational problems under study, we establish several results on well-posedness.
