We introduce the notion of relaxed ρ-θ -η-invariant pseudomonotone mappings, which is weaker than invariant pseudomonotone maps. Using the KKM technique, we establish the existence of solutions for variational-like inequality problems with relaxed ρ-θ -η-invariant pseudomonotone mappings in reflexive Banach spaces. We also introduce the concept of ρθ -pseudomonotonicity for bifunctions, and we ...

A KKM space is an abstract convex space satisfying the KKM principle. We obtain variants of the KKM principle for KKM spaces related to weakly KKM maps and indicate some applications of them. These results properly generalize the corresponding ones in G-convex spaces and φA-spaces X,D; {φA}A∈〈D〉 . Consequently, results by Balaj 2004, Liu 1991, and Tang et al. 2007 can be properly generalized an...

Various types of φA-spaces (X,D; {φA}A∈〈D〉) are simply G-convex spaces. Various types of generalized KKM maps on φA-spaces are simply KKM maps on G-convex spaces. Therefore, our G-convex space theory can be applied to various types of φAspaces. As such examples, we obtain KKM type theorems and a very general fixed point theorem on φA-spaces. RESUMEN Varios tipos de φA-espacios (X,D; {φA}A∈〈D〉) ...

In this paper we prove a new combinatorial theorem for labellings of trees, and show that it is equivalent to a KKM-type theorem for finite covers of trees and to discrete and continuous fixed point theorems on finite trees. This is in analogy with the equivalence of the classical Sperner’s lemma, KKM lemma, and the Brouwer fixed point theorem on simplices. Furthermore, we use these ideas to de...

In this review, firstly, we recall Ky Fan’s contributions to the KKM theory based on his celebrated 1961 KKM lemma (or the Fan-KKM theorem). Secondly, we introduce relatively recent applications of the Fan lemma due to other authors in the 21st century. Finally, some historical remarks on related works are added.

A cross-sectional study was conducted to determine the risk factors of job-related depression in laboratory technicians in Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia (HUSM) and Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia (KKM) Hospitals in Kelantan, between September 2001 and February 2002. One hundred and two laboratory technicians from HUSM and 79 from KKM Hospitals were selected and 84 (82.4%) from HUSM and 71 (...

In this paper, a general version of the KKM theorem is derived by using the concept of generalized KKM mappings introduced by Chang and Zhang. By employing our general KKM theorem, we obtain a general minimax inequality which contains several existing ones as special cases. As applications of our general minimax inequality, we derive an existence result for saddle-point problems under general s...

In this paper, we introduce the notion of extended relaxed -monotonicity. We obtain existence solution of the generalized mixed equilibrium problems in reflexive Banach spaces with extended relaxed -monotonicity by using the KKM technique. Our results extend and improve the corresponding results in the existing literature.

This paper concerns equilibrium problems in real metric linear spaces. Considering a modified notion of  upper sign property for bifunctions, we obtain the relationship between the solution sets of the local Minty equilibrium problem and the equilibrium problem, where the technical conditions on $f$ used in the literature are relaxed. The KKM technique is used to generalize and unify some exist...

In this paper, we introduce the concept of generalized relaxed αpseudomonotonicity for vector valued bi-functions. By using the KKM technique, we obtain some substantial results of the vector equilibrium problems with generalized relaxed α-pseudomonotonicity assumptions in reflexive Banach spaces. Several examples are provided to illustrate our investigations.
