In this paper we study the existence and uniqueness of solutions for the following complex nonlinear complementarity problem: find zS such that g(z) ∈ S* and re(g(z), z) = 0, where S is a closed convex cone in Cn, S* the polar cone, and g is a continuous function from Cn into itself. We show that the existence of a zS with g(z) ∈ int S* implies the existence of a solution to the nonlinear complementarity problem if g is monotone on S and the solution is unique if g is strictly monotone. We also show that the above problem has a unique solution if the mapping g is strongly monotone on S.
