This note deals with certain properties of convex functions. We provide results on the convexity of the set of minima of these functions, the behaviour of their subgradient set under restriction, and optimization of these functions over an…
In Guo and Peng's article [Spherically convex sets and spherically convex functions, J. Convex Anal. 28 (2021), 103--122], one defines the notions of spherical convex sets and functions on "general curved surfaces" in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$…
Symmetric quasiconvexity plays a key role for energy minimization in geometrically linear elasticity theory. Due to the complexity of this notion, a common approach is to retreat to necessary and sufficient conditions that are easier to…
This paper presents a necessary and sufficient condition for a real-valued function defined on an open and convex subset of a Banach space to be quasi-concave, and a sufficient condition for such a function to be strictly quasi-concave.…
In this paper, we obtain some new estimations of Iyengar-type inequality in which quasi-convex(quasi-concave) functions are involved. These estimations are improvements of some recently obtained estimations. Some error estimations for the…
In this paper, we present sufficient conditions ensuring that the sum of the image of quadratic functions and the nonnegative orthant is convex. The hidden convexity of the trust-region problem with linear inequality constraints is…
Nearly convex sets play important roles in convex analysis, optimization and theory of monotone operators. We give a systematic study of nearly convex sets, and construct examples of subdifferentials of lower semicontinuous convex functions…
We introduce two kinds of generalized $s$-convex functions on real linear fractal sets $\mathbb{R}^{\alpha}(0<\alpha<1)$. And similar to the class situation, we also study the properties of these two kinds of generalized $s$-convex…
This paper is devoted to the study of the relatively compact sets in Quasi-Banach function spaces, providing an important improvement of the known results. As an application, we take the final step in establishing a relative compactness…
