Levitin–Polyak well-posedness by perturbations of inverse variational inequalities

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to investigate Levitin–Polyak type well-posedness for inverse variational inequalities. We establish some metric characterizations of Levitin–Polyak α-well-posedness by perturbations. Under suitable conditions, we prove that Levitin–Polyak well-posedness by perturbations of an inverse variational inequality is equivalent to the existence and uniqueness of its solution. Moreover, we show that Levitin–Polyak well-posedness by perturbations of an inverse variational inequality is equivalent to Levitin–Polyak well-posedness by perturbations of an enlarged classical variational inequality.
