Abstract
The aim of the present chapter is to formulate and study two types of eigenvalue problems for hemivariational inequalities. The first type is the most classical one, whereas the second is an eigenvalue problem for a hemivariational inequality involving a nonlinear compact operator. After giving certain existence results, we illustrate the theory with applications.
