Abstract

We generalize the notions of Levitin-Polyak well-posedness to an equilibrium problem with both abstract and functional constraints. We introduce several types of (generalized) Levitin-Polyak well-posedness. Some metric characterizations and sufficient conditions for these types of well-posedness are obtained. Some relations among these types of well-posedness are also established under some suitable conditions.
