Abstract
In this paper we study an existence and the approximation of the solution of the elliptic variational inequality from an abstract axiomatic point of view. We discuss convergence results and give an error estimate for the difference of the two solutions in an appropriate norm. Also, we present some computational results by using fixed point method.
