We study weak and strong solutions of nonlinear non-compact operator equations in abstract spaces of adapted random points. The main result of the paper is similar to Schauder's fixed-point theorem for compact operators. The illustrative…
The goal of this note is to prove that every real-valued Lipschitz function on a Banach space can be pointwise approximated on a given $\sigma$-compact set by smooth cylindrical functions whose asymptotic Lipschitz constants are controlled.…
A hypodifferential is a compact family of affine mappings that defines a local max-type approximation of a nonsmooth convex function. We present a general theory of hypodifferentials of nonsmooth convex functions defined on a Banach space.…
An important consequence of the Hahn-Banach Theorem says that on any locally convex Hausdorff topological space $X$, there are sufficiently many continuous linear functionals to separate points of $X$. In the paper, we establish a `local'…
We consider the problem of global optimization of an unknown non-convex smooth function with zeroth-order feedback. In this setup, an algorithm is allowed to adaptively query the underlying function at different locations and receives noisy…
We are interested in local quasi efficient solutions for nonsmooth vector optimization problems under new generalized approximate invexity assumptions. We formulate necessary and sufficient optimality conditions based on Stampacchia and…
Subgradient methods comprise a fundamental class of nonsmooth optimization algorithms. Classical results show that certain subgradient methods converge sublinearly for general Lipschitz convex functions and converge linearly for convex…
Variable projection solves structured optimization problems by completely minimizing over a subset of the variables while iterating over the remaining variables. Over the last 30 years, the technique has been widely used, with empirical and…
We consider functions with isolated critical points on a closed surface. We prove that in a neighborhood of a critical point the function conjugates with Re$z^k$ for the some nonnegative integer k. The full topological invariant of such…
We prove Banach, Newton-Raphson and Brouwer fixed point theorems in the framework of generalized smooth functions, a minimal extension of Colombeau's theory (and hence of classical distribution theory) which makes it possible to model…
Both the Klein-Williams invariant $\ell_G(f)$ from \cite{KW2} and the generalized equivariant Lefschetz invariant $\lambda_G(f)$ from \cite{weber07} serve as complete obstructions to the fixed point problem in the equivariant setting. The…
In the context of the stream calculus, we present an Implicit Function Theorem (IFT) for polynomial systems, and discuss its relations with the classical IFT from calculus. In particular, we demonstrate the advantages of the stream IFT from…
We use noncommutative localization to construct a chain complex which counts the critical points of a circle-valued Morse function on a manifold, generalizing the Novikov complex. As a consequence we obtain new topological lower bounds on…
The following theorem is proved: Let M be a locally Lipschitz hypersurface in C^n with one-sided extension property at each point (e.g., without analytic discs). Let S be a closed subset of M and f : M \ S ---> C^m \ E is a CR-mapping of…
In the Orlicz type spaces ${\mathcal S}_{M}$, we prove direct and inverse approximation theorems in terms of the best approximations of functions and moduli of smoothness of fractional order. We also show the equivalence between moduli of…
In this erratum, we recover the results from an earlier paper of the author's which contained a gap. Specifically, we prove that if X is a Banach space with an unconditional basis and admits a C^{p}-smooth, Lipschitz bump function, and Y is…
We use porosity to study differentiability of Lipschitz maps on Carnot groups. Our first result states that directional derivatives of a Lipschitz function act linearly outside a $\sigma$-porous set. The second result states that irregular…
We consider a family of variational problems on a Hilbert manifold parameterized by an open subset of a Banach manifold, and we discuss the genericity of the nondegeneracy condition for the critical points. Based on an idea of B. White, we…
Let $M$ be a finite volume analytic pseudo-Riemannian manifold that admits an isometric $G$-action with a dense orbit, where $G$ is a connected non-compact simple Lie group. For low-dimensional $M$, i.e. $\dim(M) < 2\dim(G)$, when the…
To solve convex optimization problems with a noisy gradient input, we analyze the global behavior of subgradient-like flows under stochastic errors. The objective function is composite, being equal to the sum of two convex functions, one…
