Let $\mathbb{H}$ be a Hilbert space, $E \subset \mathbb{H}$ be an arbitrary subset and $f: E \rightarrow \mathbb{R}, \: G: E \rightarrow \mathbb{H}$ be two functions. We give a necessary and sufficient condition on the pair $(f,G)$ for the…
We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a $1$-jet $(f, G):E\rightarrow \mathbb{R} \times X$ to admit an extension $(F, \nabla F)$ for some $F\in C^{1, \omega}(X)$. Here $E$ stands for an arbitrary subset of a Hilbert space $X$…
Let $X$ denote a Hilbert space. Given a compact subset $K$ of $X$ and two continuous functions $f:K\to\mathbb{R}$, $G:K\to X$, we show that a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a convex function $F\in C^1(X)$ such that…
Let $C$ be a subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$ (not necessarily convex), $f:C\to\mathbb{R}$ be a function, and $G:C\to\mathbb{R}^n$ be a uniformly continuous function, with modulus of continuity $\omega$. We provide a necessary and sufficient…
Let $E \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a compact set, and $f:E \to \mathbb{R}$. How can we tell if there exists a convex extension $F \in C^{1,1}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ of $f$, i.e. satisfying $F|_E = f|_E$? Assuming such an extension exists, how small…
Given a superreflexive Banach space $X$, and a set $E \subset X$, we characterise the $1$-jets $(f,G)$ on $E$ that admit $C^{1,\omega}$ convex extensions $(F,DF)$ to all of $X$; where $\omega$ is any admissible modulus of continuity…
For an arbitrary set $E \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, and functions $f:E \to \mathbb{R}$, $G: E\to \mathbb{R}^n$ with $G$ bounded, we construct $C^1(\mathbb{R}^n)$ convex extensions $(F, \nabla F)$ of $(f,G)$ with the sharp Lipschitz constant $$…
Let $X$ denote $\mathbb{R}^n$ or, more generally, a Hilbert space. Given an arbitrary subset $C$ of $X$ and a collection $\mathcal{H}$ of affine hyperplanes of $X$ such that every $H\in\mathcal{H}$ passes through some point $x_{H}\in C$,…
Let $E$ be an arbitrary subset of a Banach space $X$, $f: E \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be a function, and $G:E \rightrightarrows X^*$ be a set-valued mapping. We give necessary and sufficient conditions on $f, G$ for the existence of a…
Our paper is a complement to a recent article by D. Azagra and C. Mudarra (2021). We show how older results on semiconvex functions with modulus $\omega$ easily imply extension theorems for $C^{1,\omega}$-smooth functions on super-reflexive…
We study continuity and regularity of convex extensions of functions from a compact set $C$ to its convex hull $K$. We show that if $C$ contains the relative boundary of $K$, and $f$ is a continuous convex function on $C$, then $f$ extends…
Let $C$ be a compact convex subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$, $f:C\to\mathbb{R}$ be a convex function, and $m\in\{1, 2, ..., \infty\}$. Assume that, along with $f$, we are given a family of polynomials satisfying Whitney's extension condition for…
We give a simple alternative proof for the $C^{1,1}$--convex extension problem which has been introduced and studied by D. Azagra and C. Mudarra [2]. As an application, we obtain an easy constructive proof for the Glaeser-Whitney problem of…
We prove that if $f:\mathbb{R}^n\to\mathbb{R}$ is convex and $A\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ has finite measure, then for any $\varepsilon>0$ there is a convex function $g:\mathbb{R}^n\to\mathbb{R}$ of class $C^{1,1}$ such that $\mathcal{L}^n(\{x\in…
We give a proof of Ilmanen's lemma, which asserts that between a locally semi-convex and a locally semi-concave function it is possible to find a C$^{1,1}$ function.
We investigate the convexity property on $(0,1)$ of the functions $\varphi_{a,b,c}$ and $1/\varphi_{a,b,c}$, where $$\varphi_{a,b,c}(x)= \frac{c-\log(1-x)}{\,_2F_1(a,b,a+b,x)},$$ whenever $a,b\geq 0$ and $a+b\leq 1$. We Show that…
Let $k\in\mathbb{N}_0\cup\{\infty\}$. According to Whitney's extension theorem, each real-valued Whitney $k$-Jet on a closed subset $A\subseteq\mathbb{R}^n$ can be extended to a $C^k$-function on $\mathbb{R}^n$. Based on Whitney's original…
Let $G \subset {\mathbb R}^{n}$ be an open convex set which is either bounded or contains a translation of a convex cone with nonempty interior. It is known that then, for every modulus $\omega$, every function on $G$ which is both…
