In this article, we considered a class of nonlinear variational hemivariational inequality problems and investigated a gap function and regularized gap function for the problems. We discussed the global error bounds for such inequalities in terms of gap function and regularized gap functions by utilizing the Clarke generalized gradient, relaxed monotonicity, and relaxed Lipschitz continuous mappings. Finally, as applications, we addressed an application to non-stationary non-smooth semi-permeability problems.

Recently, Taji [7] and Harms et al. [4] studied the regularized gap function of QVI analogous to that of VI by Fukushima [2]. Discussions are made in a finite dimensional Euclidean space. In this note, an infinite dimensional generalization is considered in the framework of a reflexive Banach space. To do so, we introduce an extended quasi-variational inequality problem (in short, EQVI) and a generalized regularized gap function of EQVI. Then we investigate some basic properties of it. Our results may be regarded as an infinite dimensional extension of corresponding results due to Taji [7].

Aussel et al. [1] introduced the notion of inverse quasi-variational inequalities (IQVI) by combining quasi-variational inequalities and inverse variational inequalities. Discussions are made in a finite dimensional Euclidean space. In this note, we develop an infinite dimensional version of IQVI by investigating some basic properties of the regularized gap function of IQVI in a Banach space.

The merit function arises from the development of the solution methods for the complementarity problems defined over the cone of non negative real vectors and has been well extended to the complementarity problems defined over the symmetric cones. In this paper, we focus on the extension of the merit functions including the gap function, the regularized gap function, the implicit Lagrangian and others to the complementarity problems defined over the nonsymmetric matrix cone. These theoretical results of this paper suggest new solution methods based on unconstrained and/or simply constrained methods to solve the matrix cone complementarity problems (MCCP).
