Generalized Invariant Monotonicity and Invexity of Non-differentiable Functions

摘要

This paper is devoted to the study of relationships between several kinds of generalized invexity of locally Lipschitz functions and generalized monotonicity of corresponding Clarke's subdifferentials. In particular, some necessary and sufficient conditions of being a locally Lipschitz function invex, quasiinvex or pseudoinvex are given in terms of mom-otonicity, quasimonotonicity and pseudomonotonicity of its Clarke's subdifferential, respectively. As an application of our results, the existence of the solutions of the variational-like inequality problems as well as the mathematical programming problems (MP) is given. Our results extend and unify the well known earlier works of many authors.
