We study the minimizers of $L^2$-subcritical inhomogeneous variational problems with spatially decaying nonlinear terms, which contain $x = 0$ as a singular point. The limit concentration behavior of minimizers is proved as $M\to\infty$ by…

We introduce several classes of set-valued maps with generalized convexity. We obtain minimax theorems for set-valued maps which satisfy the introduced properties and are not continuous, by using a fixed point theorem for weakly naturally…

For an operator T from X to Y denote m(T) the infimum of $||Tx||$ on the unit sphere $S_X$ of X. A sequence $(x_n)$ in $S_X$ is said to be minimizing for T if $||Tx_n||$ tends to m(T). In 2020 U. S. Chakraborty introduced and studied the…

We prove two weak compactness criteria in Musielak-Orlicz spaces for $N$-functions satisfying the $\Delta_2$-condition. They extend criteria from And\^o for Orlicz spaces to this setting of non-symmetrical Banach function spaces. As…
