We study semigroups of convex monotone operators on spaces of continuous functions and their behaviour with respect to $\Gamma$-convergence. In contrast to the linear theory, the domain of the generator is, in general, not invariant under…

Density of Lipschitz functions in Newtonian spaces based on quasi-Banach function lattices is discussed. Newtonian spaces are first-order Sobolev-type spaces on abstract metric measure spaces defined via (weak) upper gradients. Our main…

We provide comparison principles for convex functions through its proximal mappings. Consequently, we prove that the norm of the proximal operator determines a convex the function up to a constant. A new characterization of Lipschitzianity…

In this paper we establish that several maximal operators of convolution type, associated to elliptic and parabolic equations, are variation-diminishing. Our study considers maximal operators on the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$, on the…

Every maximally monotone operator can be associated with a family of convex functions, called the Fitzpatrick family or family of representative functions. Surprisingly, in 2017, Burachik and Mart\'inez-Legaz showed that the well-known…

We examine the chaotic behavior of certain continuous linear operators on infinite-dimensional Banach spaces, and provide several equivalent characterizations of when these operators have infinite topological entropy. For example, it is…

In this paper, we unify the theory of SSD spaces and the theory of strongly representable sets, and we apply our results to the theory of the various classes of maximally monotone sets. In particular, we prove that type (ED), dense type,…
