Abstract

The aim of this chapter is to derive dual formulations for quasi-variational inequalities. First, we present a brief background on convex analysis and, then, we recall the main ideas of the Mosco, Capuzzo-Dolcetta, and Matzeu duality theory in its form adapted for implicit variational inequalities.
