dc.description.abstractIn this dissertation, we introduce and study the inertial forward-reflected-backward method for approximating a solution of bilevel variational inequality problems. Our proposed method involves a single projection onto a feasible set, one functional evaluation and adopts the inertial extrapolation term. These features make our algorithm cost-effective and efficient, which is desirable when the cost operator and the feasible set have a complex structure. We incorporate the regularization technique in our method and establish that the sequences generated by our method converge strongly to a solution of the bilevel variational inequality problem studied in this work; furthermore, we modified our method by replacing the stepsizes and projection onto a feasible set with a self-adaptive non-monotonic stepsizes and projection onto a constructive halfspace, respectively. The non-monotonic stepsizes ensure that our method performs without the previous detail of the Lipschitz constant, and the projection onto a constructive halfspace is cheap since its computation is through an explicit formula. These adjustments in our method ensure an improved performance, cheap computation and easy implementation of our method. We show the strong convergence result of the iterative sequences. Lastly, we give numerical experiments comparing the performance of the proposed methods with existing methods
