- (mathematics, of an operator) Having the property that there exists a constant L ≥ 0 such that for all x and y in the domain, <Ax-Ay, x-y> is greater than or equal to 1/L ||Ax - Ay||<sup>2</sup>, where Ax is the operator applied to x.

- Our general setting features stochastic approximations of the cocoercive operator and stochastic perturbations in the evaluation of the resolvents of the set-valued operator.
