In this paper, we consider a class of monotone inclusion (MI) problems of finding a zero of the sum of two monotone operators, in which one operator is maximal monotone, whereas the other is locally Lipschitz continuous. We propose primal-dual (PD) extrapolation methods to solve them using a point and operator extrapolation technique, whose parameters are chosen by a backtracking line search scheme. The proposed methods enjoy an operation complexity of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], measured by the number of fundamental operations consisting only of evaluations of one operator and resolvent of the other operator, for finding an ε-residual solution of strongly and nonstrongly MI problems, respectively. The latter complexity significantly improves the previously best operation complexity [Formula: see text]. As a byproduct, complexity results of the primal-dual extrapolation methods are also obtained for finding an ε-KKT or ε-residual solution of convex conic optimization, conic constrained saddle point, and variational inequality problems under local Lipschitz continuity. We provide preliminary numerical results to demonstrate the performance of the proposed methods.
