The proposed book provides a comprehensive coverage of theory and methods in the areas of continuous optimization and variational inequality. It describes theory and solution methods for optimization with smooth and non-smooth functions, for variational inequalities with single-valued and multivalued mappings, and for related classes such as mixed variational inequalities, complementarity problems, and general equilibrium problems. The emphasis is made on revealing generic properties of these problems that allow creation of efficient solution methods.
