As very powerful and important tools in the study of nonlinear sciences, variational inequalities and vector optimization
have attracted so much attention. Over the last decades,
variational inequality and vector optimization techniques
have been applied extensively in such diverse fields as biology,
chemistry, economics, engineering, game theory, management science, physics, and so on. The thorough study of
both theory and methods about variational inequalities and
vector optimization contained in the literature will help us
to find new variational inequalities and vector optimization
techniques for solving the practical problems.
The aim of this special issue is to present new approaches
and theories for variational inequalities and vector optimization problems arising in mathematics and applied sciences.
This special issue includes 24 high-quality peer-reviewed
papers that deal with different aspects of variational inequalities and vector optimization problems. These papers contain
some new, novel, and innovative techniques and ideas. We
hope that all the papers published in this special issue can
motivate and foster further scientific works and development
of the research in the area of the theory, algorithms, and
applications of variational inequalities and vector optimization problems.
