Abstract
A projected subgradient method for solving a class of set-valued mixed variational inequalities (SMVIs) is proposed when the mapping is not necessarily Lipschitz. Under some suitable conditions, it can be proven that the sequence generated by the method can strongly converge to the unique solution to the problem in the Hilbert spaces.
