Let us consider a Banach space $X$ with the property that every real-valued Lipschitz function $f$ can be uniformly approximated by a Lipschitz, $C^1$-smooth function $g$ with $\Lip(g)\le C \Lip(f)$ (with $C$ depending only on the space…
We study a method for calculating the utility function from a candidate of a demand function that is not differentiable, but is locally Lipschitz. Using this method, we obtain two new necessary and sufficient conditions for a candidate of a…
The purpose of this paper is to study the existence of weak solutions for some classes of one-parameter subelliptic gradient-type systems involving a Sobolev-Hardy potential defined on an unbounded domain $\Omega_\psi$ of the Heisenberg…
In this paper, given a reflexive real Banach space X and two sequentially weakly lower semicontinuous functionals Phi, Psi on X with Psi strongly continuous and coercive, we are mainly interested in the existence of infinitely many local…
Dahmen and Schmeding have obtained the result that although the smooth Lie group $G$ of real analytic diffeomorphisms $\mathbb S^{\,1.}\to\mathbb S^{\,1.}$ has a compatible analytic manifold structure, it does not make $G$ a real analytic…
For an arbitrary infinite-dimensional Banach space $\X$, we construct examples of strongly-measurable $\X$-valued Pettis integrable functions whose indefinite Pettis integrals are nowhere weakly differentiable; thus, for these functions the…
The abstract version of Struwe's monotonicity trick developed by Jeanjean and Jeanjean-Toland for functionals depending on a real parameter is improved, under suitable assumptions. Besides, all the machinery is extended to the case of…
We prove a unified and general criterion for the uniqueness of critical points of a functional in the presence of constraints such as positivity, boundedness, or fixed mass. Our method relies on convexity properties along suitable paths and…
This paper is devoted to the study of the relatively compact sets in Quasi-Banach function spaces, providing an important improvement of the known results. As an application, we take the final step in establishing a relative compactness…
A remarkable theorem of R. C. James is the following: suppose that $X$ is a Banach space and $C \subseteq X$ is a norm bounded, closed and convex set such that every linear functional $x^* \in X^*$ attains its supremum on $C$; then $C$ is a…
We prove that every lattice homomorphism acting on a Banach space $\mathcal{X}$ with the lattice structure given by an unconditional basis has a non-trivial closed invariant subspace. In fact, it has a non-trivial closed invariant ideal,…
In this study we provide several significant generalisations of Banach contraction principle where the Lipschitz constant is substituted by real-valued control function that is a comparison function. We study non-stationary variants of…
This paper gives a first step toward extending the theory of Fourier-Stieltjes algebras from groups to groupoids. If G is a locally compact (second countable) groupoid, we show that B(G), the linear span of the Borel positive definite…
We prove a linear and a nonlinear generalization of the Lax-Milgram theorem. In particular we give sufficient conditions for a real-valued function defined on the product of a reflexive Banach space and a normed space to represent all…
Similar to the theory of finite Markov chains it is shown that in a Banach space $X$ ordered by a closed cone $K$ with nonempty interior int($K$) a power bounded positive operator $A$ with compact power such that its trajectories for…
In this paper we lay the foundations for the Morse theoretical study of strongly indefinite functionals on Banach manifolds by developing the local theory for a specific model class that captures several key analytical features also arising…
In this paper, several differentiability criteria for real functions of multiple variables in n-dimensional Euclidean space are considered. Simple and easy-to-use Cauchy-like criterion is formulated and proven. Relaxed sufficient conditions…
Given a number field $F$, a finite group $G$ and an indeterminate $T$, {\it{a $G$-parametric extension over $F$}} is a finite Galois extension $E/F(T)$ with Galois group $G$ and $E/F$ regular that has all the Galois extensions of $F$ with…
We consider the fractional derivative of a general Poisson semigroup. With this fractional derivative we define the generalized fractional Littlewood-Paley $g$-function for semigroups acting on $L^p$-spaces of functions with values in…
We prove a compact embedding theorem in a class of spaces of piecewise H1 functions subordinated to a class of shape regular, but not necessarily quasi-uniform triangulations of a polygonal domain. This result generalizes the…
