Abstract

A general vector-valued variational inequality (GVVI) is considered. We establish the existence theorem for (GVVI) in the noncompact setting, which is a noncompact generalization of the existence theorem for (GVVI) obtained by Lee et al., by using the generalized form of KKM theorem due to Park. Moreover, we obtain the fuzzy extension of our existence theorem.
