Abstract

The classical variational inequality problem with a Lipschitzian and strongly monotone operator on a nonempty closed convex subset in a real Hilbert space was studied. A new finite-step relaxed hybrid steepest-descent method for this class of variational inequalities was introduced. Strong convergence of this method was established under suitable assumptions imposed on the algorithm parameters.
