Leray-Schauder Type Alternatives, Complementarity Problems and Variational Inequalities (Nonconvex Optimization and Its Applications (closed))

This book is the first to discuss complementarity theory and variational inequalities using Leray–Schauder type alternatives. Complementarity theory, a relatively new domain in applied mathematics, has deep connections with several aspects of fundamental mathematics. The ideas and method presented in this book may be considered as a starting point for new developments. The book presents a new kind of application for the Leray–Schauder principle.
