We determine in an explicit way the depth of the fiber cone and its relation ideal for classes of monomial ideals in two variables. These classes include concave and convex ideals as well as symmetric ideals.
We consider a general conic mixed-binary set where each homogeneous conic constraint $j$ involves an affine function of independent continuous variables and an epigraph variable associated with a nonnegative function, $f_j$, of common…
We introduce a new type of norm for ordered vector spaces majorized by a proper (convex) cone that generalizes the notions of order unit norm and base norm. Then we give sufficient conditions to ensure its completeness. In the case of…
According to a 2002 theorem by Cardaliaguet and Tahraoui, an isotropic, compact and connected subset of the group $\operatorname{GL}^+(2)$ of invertible $2\times2-\,$matrices is rank-one convex if and only if it is polyconvex. In a 2005…
We introduce the set of quasi-Herglotz functions and demonstrate that it has properties useful in the modeling of non-passive systems. The linear space of quasi-Herglotz functions constitutes a natural extension of the convex cone of…
The aim of this paper is to introduce and to investigate the basic properties of $q$-convex, $q$-affine and $q$-concave sequences and to establish their surprising connection to Chebyshev polynomials of the first and of the second kind. One…
Motivated by classical notions of bilinear matrix inequalities (BMIs) and partial convexity, this article investigates partial convexity for noncommutative functions. It is shown that noncommutative rational functions that are partially…
During the study of the topic of limit summability of functions (introduced by the author in 2001), we encountered some types of functions that are related to the mean value theorem. In this paper, we formally define mean value and…
For the existence of strong duality in convex optimization regularity conditions play an indisputable role. We mainly deal in this paper with regularity conditions formulated by means of different generalizations of the notion of interior…
We formulate a multi-valued version of the Tietze-Urysohn extension theorem. Precisely, we prove that any upper semicontinuous multi-valued map with nonempty closed convex values defined on a closed subset (resp. closed perfectly normal…
We consider convex sets and functions over idempotent semifields, like the max-plus semifield. We show that if $K$ is a conditionally complete idempotent semifield, with completion $\bar{K}$, a convex function $K^n\to\bar{K}$ which is lower…
Monotone operators are of central importance in modern optimization and nonlinear analysis. Their study has been revolutionized lately, due to the systematic use of the Fitzpatrick function. Pioneered by Penot and Svaiter, a topic of recent…
This paper considers homogeneous order preserving continuous maps on the normal cone of an ordered normed vector space. It is shown that certain operators of that kind which are not necessarily compact themselves but have a compact power…
We study properties of continuous semi-homogeneous operators of degree $k$ via various functions (e.g. measures of noncompactness) on all bounded subsets of a Banach space. We prove necessary and sufficient conditions for these functions to…
We introduce the notion of one-sided mapping cones of positive linear maps between matrix algebras. These are convex cones of maps that are invariant under compositions by completely positive maps from either the left or right side. The…
The object of investigation in this paper are vector nonlinear programming problems with cone constraints. We introduce the notion of a Fritz John pseudoinvex cone-constrained vector problem. We prove that a problem with cone constraints is…
If the complement of a closed convex set in a closed convex cone is bounded, then this complement minus the apex of the cone is called a coconvex set. Coconvex sets appear in singularity theory (they are closely related to Newton diagrams)…
The notion of unboundedly order converges has been recieved recently a particular attention by several authors. The main result of the present paper shows that the notion is efficient and deserves that care. It states that a vector lattice…
Over the past years a theory of conjugate duality for set-valued functions that map into the set of upper closed subsets of a preordered topological vector space was developed. For scalar duality theory, continuity of convex functions plays…
The concept of convex compactness, weaker than the classical notion of compactness, is introduced and discussed. It is shown that a large class of convex subsets of topological vector spaces shares this property and that is can be used in…
