In a recent paper in Journal of Convex Analysis the authors studied, in non-reflexive Banach spaces, a class of maximal monotone operators, characterized by the existence of a function in Fitzpatrick's family of the operator which conjugate…
In this work we are concerned with maximality of monotone operators representable by certain convex functions in non-reflexive Banach spaces. We also prove that these maximal monotone operators satisfy a Bronsted-Rockafellar type property.…
We define a family of linear type (D) operators for which the inverse of their maximal monotone extensions to the bidual are not of type (D) and provide an example of an operator in this family.
If $L$ is a selfdual Lagrangian $L$ on a reflexive phase space $X\times X^*$, then the vector field $x\to \bar\partial L(x):=\{p\in X^*; (p,x)\in \partial L(x,p)\}$ is maximal monotone. Conversely, any maximal monotone operator $T$ on $X$…

Gossez type (D) operators are defined in non-reflexive Banach spaces and share with the subdifferential a topological related property, characterized by bounded nets. In this work we present new properties and characterizations of these…

The epsilon-enlargement of a maximal monotone operator is a construct similar to the Br{\o}ndsted and Rocakfellar epsilon-subdifferential enlargement of the subdifferential. Like the epsilon-subdifferential, the epsilon-enlargement of a…

In the first part of the note we prove that a sufficient condition (due to Simons) for the convexity of the closure of the domain/range of a monotone operator is also necessary when the operator has bounded domain and is maximal. Simons'…
We give a self-contained and introductory account of some basic functional analytic tools needed to understand maximal monotone operators in Hilbert spaces. We review domains of (possibly unbounded) operators, closed sets and closed…

Maximal monotone operators on a Banach space into its dual can be represented by convex functions bounded below by the duality product. It is natural to ask under which conditions a convex function represents a maximal monotone operator. A…
In this paper, we construct maximally monotone operators that are not of Gossez's dense-type (D) in many nonreflexive spaces. Many of these operators also fail to possess the Br{\o}nsted-Rockafellar (BR) property. Using these operators, we…

We are concerned with surjectivity of perturbations of maximal monotone operators in non-reflexive Banach spaces. While in a reflexive setting, a classical surjectivity result due to Rockafellar gives a necessary and sufficient condition to…
