We introduce and study Banach spaces which have property CWO, i.e., every finite convex combination of relatively weakly open subsets of their unit ball is open in the relative weak topology of the unit ball. Stability results of such…

We propose finitely convergent methods for solving convex feasibility problems defined over a possibly infinite pool of constraints. Following other works in this area, we assume that the interior of the solution set is nonempty and that…

Extended real-valued functions are often used in optimization theory, but in different ways for infimum problems and for supremum problems. We present an approach to extended real-valued functions that works for all types of problems and…

In this article, we study the Daugavet property and the diametral diameter two properties in complex Banach spaces. The characterizations for both Daugavet and $\Delta$-points are revisited in the context of complex Banach spaces. We also…

In this paper, we study Banach contractions in uniform spaces endowed with a graph and give some sufficient conditions for a mapping to be a Picard operator. Our main results generalize some results of [J. Jachymski, "The contraction…

Let $E$ be a Banach space and $\X$ be the closed unit ball of the dual space $E^*$. For a compact set $K$ in $E$, we prove that $K$ is polynomially convex in $E$ if and only if there exist a unital commutative Banach algebra $A$ and a…

Having been unclear how to define that a domain is strictly pseudoconvex in the infinite-dimensional setting, we develop a general theory having Banach spaces in mind. We first focus on finite dimension and eliminate the need of two degrees…

The notion of nonpositive curvature in Alexandrov's sense is extended to include p-uniformly convex Banach spaces. Infinite dimensional manifolds of semi-negative curvature with a p-uniformly convex tangent norm fall in this class on…

We provide an elementary proof of a result by V.P.~Fonf and C.~Zanco on point-finite coverings of separable Hilbert spaces. Indeed, by using a variation of the famous argument introduced by J.~Lindenstrauss and R.R.~Phelps \cite{LP} to…

We show that every infinite dimensional Banach space has a closed and bounded convex set that is not remotal.

Segmentation remains an important problem in image processing. For homogeneous (piecewise smooth) images, a number of important models have been developed and refined over the past several decades. However, these models often fail when…

We study the unknown differences between the size of slices and relatively weakly open subsets of the unit ball in Banach spaces. We show that every Banach space containing isomorphic copies of $c_0$ can be equivalently renormed so that…

We consider the problem of lower bounding a generalized Minkowski measure of subsets of a convex body with a log-concave probability measure, conditioned on the set size. A bound is given in terms of diameter and set size, which is sharp…

We study lower bounds for the norm of the product of polynomials and their applications to the so called \emph{plank problem.} We are particularly interested in polynomials on finite dimensional Banach spaces, in which case our results…

The affine inverse eigenvalue problem consists of identifying a real symmetric matrix with a prescribed set of eigenvalues in an affine space. Due to its ubiquity in applications, various instances of the problem have been widely studied in…

Motivated by the question of Mikael de la Salle, we investigate the problem of the existence of equivalent strictly convex norms on Banach spaces that are invariant with respect to an action of a group by linear isometries. We develop…

We construct a convergent family of outer approximations for the problem of optimizing polynomial functions over convex bodies subject to polynomial constraints. This is achieved by generalizing the polarization hierarchy, which has…

The polynomial cluster value problem replaces the role of the continuous linear functionals in the original cluster value problem for the continuous polynomials to describe the corresponding cluster sets and fibers. We prove several…

In this paper we consider the solvability of a non-convex regular polynomial vector optimization problem on a nonempty closed set. We introduce regularity conditions for the polynomial vector optimization problem and study properties and…

Let X be a real uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach space and C a nonempty closed and convex subset of X. Let Pc from X to C denote the (standard) metric projection operator. In this paper, we define the Gateaux directional…
