Abstract

The pseudomonotonicity of affine mappings on polyhedral convex sets is characterized in the one-dimensional case and in a higher-dimensional setting. The obtained results allow us to investigate the pseudomonotonicity of the regularized mappings (in the sense of Tikhonov regularization). Among other things, it is shown that there exists a pseudomonotone affine variational inequality problem VI(\(K,F\)) with a nonempty solution set for which the regularized problem VI(\(K,F_\varepsilon \)) is not pseudomonotone for every \(\varepsilon \in (0,\frac{1}{2})\). In addition, we prove that the feasibility of a pseudomonotone linear complementarity problem implies the solution uniqueness of the regularized problem.
