The main contribution of this paper is that every convex function with non-empty relative algebraic interior of its domain is Lipschitz and subdifferentiable in some algebraic sense without any additional topological constraints. The…

We introduce a generalized version of the local Lipschitz number $\textrm{lip}\,u$, and show that it can be used to characterize Sobolev functions $u\in W_{\textrm{loc}}^{1,p}(\mathbb R^n)$, $1\le p\le \infty$, as well as functions of…

For a given constant $\lambda > 0$ and a bounded Lipschitz domain $D \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ ($n \geq 2$), we establish that almost-minimizers of the functional $$ J(\mathbf{v}; D) = \int_D \sum_{i=1}^{m} \left|\nabla v_i(x) \right|^p+…

We prove that, for any closed semialgebraic subset $W$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ and for any positive integer $p$, there exists a Nash function $f:\mathbb{R}^n\setminus W\longrightarrow (0, \infty)$ which is equivalent to the distance function from…

We provide sufficient conditions for instability of the subgradient method with constant step size around a local minimum of a locally Lipschitz semi-algebraic function. They are satisfied by several spurious local minima arising in robust…

In this paper we investigate the approximation of continuous functions on the Wasserstein space by smooth functions, with smoothness meant in the sense of Lions differentiability. In particular, in the case of a Lipschitz function we are…

We study the fundamental properties of pointwise semi-Lipschitz functions between asymmetric spaces, which are the natural asymmetric counterpart of pointwise Lipschitz functions. We also study the influence that partial symmetries of a…

We propose a new length formula that governs the iterates of the momentum method when minimizing differentiable semialgebraic functions with locally Lipschitz gradients. It enables us to establish local convergence, global convergence, and…

We prove that local weak solutions to nonlocal parabolic $p$-Laplace equations are locally Lipschitz continuous in space, uniformly in time for every $1<p<\infty$ and $s \in (0,1)$ whenever $sp > p-1$. Our results hold for symmetric,…

In this short note we give a short proof of a recent result by Potapov and Sukochev (arXiv:0904.4095v1), stating that a Lipschitz function on the real line remains Lipschitz on the (self-adjoint part of) non-commutative $L_p$ spaces with…

We prove maximum and comparison principles for fractional discrete derivatives in the integers. Regularity results when the space is a mesh of length $h$, and approximation theorems to the continuous fractional derivatives are shown. When…

Let $\Gamma$ be a closed subset of a complete Riemannian manifold $M$ of dimension $\geq 2$, let $f: M \to N$ be a Lipschitz map to a complete Riemannian manifold $N$, and let $\psi$ be a continuous function which dominates the local…

We establish the strong unique continuation property of fractional orders of linear elliptic equations with Lipschitz coefficients by establishing monotonicity of some Almgren-type frequency functional via an extension procedure.

We prove that local weak solutions of the orthotropic $p-$harmonic equation are locally Lipschitz, for every $p\ge 2$ and in every dimension. More generally, the result holds true for more degenerate equations with orthotropic structure,…

We study proximal random reshuffling for minimizing the sum of locally Lipschitz functions and a proper lower semicontinuous convex function without assuming coercivity or the existence of limit points. The algorithmic guarantees pertaining…

Using a geometric argument, we show that under a reasonable continuity condition, the Clarke subdifferential of a semi-algebraic (or more generally stratifiable) directionally Lipschitzian function admits a simple form: the normal cone to…
