Projection-proximal methods for general variational inequalities

In this paper, we consider and analyze some new projection-proximal methods for solving general variational inequalities. The modified methods converge for pseudomonotone operators which is a weaker condition than monotonicity. The proposed methods include several new and known methods as special cases. Our results can be considered as a novel and important extension of the previously known results. Since the general variational inequalities include the quasi-variational inequalities and implicit complementarity problems as special cases, results proved in this paper continue to hold for these problems.
