On the Maximal Monotone Operators in Hadamard Spaces

In this paper, some topics of monotone operator theory in the setting of Hadamard spaces are investigated. For a fixed element $p$ in a Hadamard space $X$, the notion of $p$-Fenchel conjugate is introduced and a type of the Fenchel-Young inequality is proved. Moreover, we examine the $p$-Fitzpatrick transform and its main properties for monotone set-valued operators in Hadamard spaces. Furthermore, some relations between maximal monotone operators and certain classes of proper, convex, l.s.c. extended real-valued functions on X\times X^{\scalebox{0.7}{^{\lozenge}}}, are given.
