The Baillon-Haddad theorem establishes that the gradient of a convex and continuously differentiable function defined in a Hilbert space is $\beta$-Lipschitz if and only if it is $1/\beta$-cocoercive. In this paper, we extend this theorem…

We give a simple proof of the Baillon-Haddad theorem for convex functions defined on open and convex subsets of Hilbert spaces. We also state some generalizations and limitations. In particular, we discuss equivalent characterizations of…

It is well known that the iterates of an averaged nonexpansive mapping may only converge weakly to fixed point. A celebrated result by Baillon, Bruck, and Reich from 1978 yields strong convergence in the presence of linearity. In this…

A known Hardy-Littlewood theorem asserts that if both the function and its conjugate are of bounded variation, then their Fourier series are absolutely convergent. It is proved in the paper that the same result holds true for functions on…

An important consequence of the Hahn-Banach Theorem says that on any locally convex Hausdorff topological space $X$, there are sufficiently many continuous linear functionals to separate points of $X$. In the paper, we establish a `local'…

We consider the problem of minimizing a function, which is the sum of a linear function and a composition of a strongly convex function with a linear transformation, over a compact polyhedral set. Jaggi and Lacoste-Julien [14] showed that…

It is known that if a twice differentiable function has a Lipschitz continuous Hessian, then its gradients satisfy a Jensen-type inequality. In particular, this inequality is Hessian-free in the sense that the Hessian does not actually…

We prove the bivariate Cayley-Hamilton theorem, a powerful generalization of the classical Cayley-Hamilton theorem. The bivariate Cayley-Hamilton theorem has three direct corollaries that are usually proved independently: The classical…

New proofs of the Hadwiger theorem for smooth and for continuous valuations on convex functions are obtained, and the Klain-Schneider theorem on convex functions is established. In addition, an extension theorem for valuations defined on…

As an application of Brouwer's fixed-point theorem we prove that a continuously differentiable convex function with gradient of constant norm is an affine mapping. It is a first-order characterization of affine mappings among continuously…

In this paper, we prove a mean ergodic theorem for nonexpansive mappings in Hadamard (nonpositive curvature metric) spaces, which extends the Baillon nonlinear ergodic theorem. The main result shows that the sequence given by the Karcher…

We show that domains, that allow for convex functions with unbounded gradient at their boundary, are convex.

On each nonreflexive Banach space X there exists a positive continuous convex function f such that 1/f is not a d.c. function (i.e., a difference of two continuous convex functions). This result together with known ones implies that X is…

The classical Liouville theorem states that a bounded harmonic function on all of $\RR^n$ must be constant. In the early 1970s, S.T. Yau vastly generalized this, showing that it holds for manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature.…

In this short paper, we prove fixed point theorems for nonexpansive mappings whose domains are unbounded subsets of Banach spaces. These theorems are generalizations of Penot's result in [Proc. Amer. Math. Soc., 131 (2003), 2371--2377].

We prove a Liouville type theorem for entire maximal $m$-subharmonic functions in $\mathbb C^n$ with bounded gradient. This result, coupled with a standard blow-up argument, yields a (non-explicit) a priori gradient estimate for the complex…

In this paper, we prove the existence of fixed points of mappings satisfying the condition (Da), a kind of generalized nonexpansive mappings, on a weakly compact convex subset in a Banach space satisfying Opial's condition. And we use…

We establish that the Dirichlet problem for convex linear growth functionals on $BD$, the functions of bounded deformation, gives rise to the same unconditional Sobolev and partial $C^{1,\alpha}$-regularity theory as presently available for…

We call pattern any non-constant stable solution of a semilinear elliptic equation with Neumann boundary conditions. A classical theorem of Casten, Holland [19] and Matano [49] states that stable patterns do not exist in convex domains. In…

The Brouwer fixed point theorem says that any continuous function from disc to itself has a fixed point. By using simple geometrical technique we have generalized the result in manifold and proved that any continuous function on the…
