On the Lipschitz continuity of the solutions map in semidefinite linear complementarity problems

Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the Lipschitz continuity of the solution map in semidefinite linear complementarity problems. For a monotone linear transformation defined on the space of real symmetric n × n matrices, we show that the Lipschitz continuity of the solution map implies the globally uniquely solvable (GUS)-property. For Lyapunov transformations with the Q-property, we prove that the Lipschitz continuity of the solution map is equivalent to the strong monotonicity property. For the double-sided multiplicative transformations, we show that the Lipschitz continuity of the solution map implies the GUS-property.
