This work deals with a maximal monotone operator $A$ of type (D) in a Banach space whose dual space is strictly convex. We establish some representations for the value $Ax$ at a given point $x$ via its values at nearby points of $x$. We…
Maximal monotone operators on a Banach space into its dual can be represented by convex functions bounded below by the duality product. It is natural to ask under which conditions a convex function represents a maximal monotone operator. A…
In a previous paper, the authors showed that in a reflexive Banach space the lower limit of a sequence of maximal monotone operators is always representable by a convex function. The present paper gives precisions to the latter result by…
We give a self-contained and introductory account of some basic functional analytic tools needed to understand maximal monotone operators in Hilbert spaces. We review domains of (possibly unbounded) operators, closed sets and closed…
We show that the lower limit of a sequence of maximal monotone operators on a reflexive Banach space is a representable monotone operator. As a consequence, we obtain that the variational sum of maximal monotone operators and the…
We give, for general Banach spaces, a characterization of the sequential lower limit of maximal monotone operators of type (D) and prove its representability. As a consequence, using a recent extension of the Moreau-Yosida regularization…
In the context of general Banach spaces characterizations for the maximal monotonicity of operators with non-empty domain interior as well as stronger continuity properties for such operators are provided.
In this paper, we consider the structure of maximally monotone operators in Banach space whose domains have nonempty interior and we present new and explicit structure formulas for such operators. Along the way, we provide new proofs of the…
The main focus of this paper is to study multi-valued linear monotone operators in the contexts of locally convex spaces via the use of their Fitzpatrick and Penot functions. Notions such as maximal monotonicity, uniqueness,…
We consider a class of monotone operators which are appropriate for symbolic representation and manipulation within a computer algebra system. Various structural properties of the class (e.g., closure under taking inverses, resolvents) are…
We study the relations between some geometric properties of maximal monotone operators and generic geometric and analytical properties of the functions on the associate Fitzpatrick family of convex representations. We also investigate under…
In this work we are concerned with maximality of monotone operators representable by certain convex functions in non-reflexive Banach spaces. We also prove that these maximal monotone operators satisfy a Bronsted-Rockafellar type property.…
Operator monotone functions, introduced by Lowner in 1934, are an important class of real-valued functions. They arise naturally in matrix and operator theory and have various applications in other branches of mathematics and related…
This paper is primarily concerned with the problem of maximality for the sum $A+B$ and composition $L^{*}ML$ in non-reflexive Banach space settings under qualifications constraints involving the domains of $A,B,M$. Here $X$, $Y$ are Banach…
In this note we use recent results concerning the sum theorem for maximal monotone multifunctions in general Banach spaces to find new characterizations and properties of regular maximal monotone multifunctions and then use these to…
This paper introduces a new definition of $\alpha$-monotone operators in real 2-uniformly convex and smooth Banach spaces. Based on this new definition, we establish several novel structural and analytical properties of such operators,…
In this paper we study, in the relaxed context of locally convex spaces, intrinsic properties of monotone operators needed for the sum conjecture for maximal monotone operators to hold under classical interiority-type domain constraints.
We study maximal monotone operators $A : X \rightrightarrows X^*$ whose Fitzpatrick family reduces to a singleton; such operators will be called uniquely representable. We show that every such operator is cyclically monotone (hence,…
Recently in [1] a new class of maximal monotone operators has been introduced. In this note we study domain range properties as well as connections with other classes and calculus rules for these operators we called strongly-representable.…
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…
