Abstract

The aim of this paper is to define a generalized monotone mapping, which is the sum of symmetric cocoercive mapping and symmetric monotone mapping. The resolvent operator associated with generalized monotone mapping is defined and some of its properties are shown. We solve a variational inclusion problem using these new concepts. For illustration, some examples are given.

i.e., M(f,g) is \({\frac{1}{4}}\)-relaxed monotone with respect to g.

Moreover, for λ=1, M is H(⋅,⋅)-Co-monotone with respect to A,B,f and g.

(vii) Let R,S,T:ℝ2→ℝ2, be the identity mappings, then R,S and T are \(\mathcal{D}\)-Lipschitz continuous mappings with constant 1.

(viii) Let P,F,G:ℝ2→ℝ2 be defined by

i.e., F is \({\frac{\sqrt{5}}{n}}\)-Lipschitz continuous, for n=3,4.

which implies that

i.e., G is \({\frac{5}{n}}\)-Lipschitz continuous, for n=11,12.

which implies that

i.e., S is \({\frac{1}{n}}\)-relaxed Lipschitz continuous with respect to F, for n=2,3.

(xi) For the constants
