Abstract

In this paper, we consider two classes of generalized mixed vector equilibrium problems and mixed vector equilibrium problems, and propose some gap functions by using a new method, which is different from the previously known methods used in the literature. Finally, error bounds are obtained for the underlying mixed vector equilibrium problems in terms of regularized gap functions without using projection method.
