Abstract

In this paper, stability of a parametric quasivariational inequality of the Minty type is studied via various sufficient conditions characterizing upper and lower semicontinuity of the solution sets as well as the approximate solution sets. Sufficient conditions ensuring upper semicontinuity of the approximate solution sets of an optimization problem with quasivariational inequality constraints are also presented.
