AbstractWe consider nonlinear systems driven by a general nonhomogeneous differential operator with various types of boundary conditions and with a reaction in which we have the combined effects of a maximal monotone term $A(x)$ A ( x ) and of a multivalued perturbation $F(t,x,y)$ F ( t , x , y ) which can be convex or nonconvex valued. We consider the cases where $D(A)\neq \mathbb{R}^{N}$ D ( A ) ≠ R N and $D(A)= \mathbb{R}^{N}$ D ( A ) = R N and prove existence and relaxation theorems. Applications to differential variational inequalities and control systems are discussed.
