In this paper, we establish coincidence-like results in the case when the values of the correspondences are not convex. In order to do this, we define a new type of correspondences, namely properly quasi-convex-like. Further, we apply the…
Using the KKM technique, we establish some existence results for variational-hemivariational inequalities involving monotone set valued mappings on bounded, closed and convex subsets in reflexive Banach spaces. We also derive several…
A number of landmark existence theorems of nonlinear functional analysis follow in a simple and direct way from the basic separation of convex closed sets in finite dimension via elementary versions of the Knaster-Kuratowski-Mazurkiewicz…
Several aspects of the interplay between monotone operator theory and convex optimization are presented. The crucial role played by monotone operators in the analysis and the numerical solution of convex minimization problems is emphasized.…
Monotonicity and convex analysis arise naturally in the framework of multi-marginal optimal transport theory. However, a comprehensive multi-marginal monotonicity and convex analysis theory is still missing. To this end we study extensions…
In this paper, we study convex analysis and its theoretical applications. We first apply important tools of convex analysis to Optimization and to Analysis. We then show various deep applications of convex analysis and especially infimal…
In the first part of the note we prove that a sufficient condition (due to Simons) for the convexity of the closure of the domain/range of a monotone operator is also necessary when the operator has bounded domain and is maximal. Simons'…
We consider sets and maps defined over an o-minimal structure over the reals, such as real semi-algebraic or subanalytic sets. A {\em monotone map} is a multi-dimensional generalization of a usual univariate monotone function, while the…
In this paper, we focus on deriving some sufficient conditions for the existence of solutions to non-monotone Variational Inequalities (VIs) based on inverse mapping theory. We have obtained several widely applicable sufficient conditions…
Extremal problems are studied involving an objective function with values in (order) complete lattices of sets generated by so called set relations. Contrary to the popular paradigm in vector optimization, the solution concept for such…
Any maximal monotone operator can be characterized by a convex function. The family of such convex functions is invariant under a transformation connected with the Fenchel-Legendre conjugation. We prove that there exist a convex…
We prove conditions for the existence of a continuous linear right inverse for a surjective convolution operator in spaces of germs of analytic functions on convex subsets of the complex plane. Considered convex sets have a countable…
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…
The notion of a firmly nonexpansive mapping is central in fixed point theory because of attractive convergence properties for iterates and the correspondence with maximal monotone operators due to Minty. In this paper, we systematically…
We introduce the notion of weak minimizer in set optimization. Necessary and sufficient conditions in terms of scalarized variational inequalities of Stampacchia and Minty type, respectively, are proved. As an application, we obtain…
Recently, the authors studied the connection between each maximal monotone operator T and a family H(T) of convex functions. Each member of this family characterizes the operator and satisfies two particular inequalities. The aim of this…
Perturbations due to round-off errors in computer modeling are discontinuous and therefore one cannot use results like KAM theory about smooth perturbations of twist maps. We elaborate a special approximation scheme to construct two smooth…
Maximally monotone operators and firmly nonexpansive mappings play key roles in modern optimization and nonlinear analysis. Five years ago, it was shown that if finitely many firmly nonexpansive operators are all asymptotically regular…
In the finite dimensional case, mean-type mappings, their invariant means, relations between the uniqueness of invariant means and convergence of orbits of the mapping, are considered. In particular it is shown, that the uniqueness of an…
We generalize Loewner's method for proving that matrix monotone functions are operator monotone. The relation x \leq y on bounded operators is our model for a definition for C*-relations of being residually finite dimensional. Our main…
