We present results about minimization of convex functionals defined over a finite set of vectors in a finite dimensional Hilbert space, that extend several known results for the Benedetto-Fickus frame potential. Our approach depends on…

In [2] we characterized in terms of a quadratic growth condition various metric regularity properties of the subdifferential of a lower semicontinuous convex function acting in a Hilbert space. Motivated by some recent results in [16] where…

In this work one proves that, around each point of a dense open set (regular points), a real analytic or holomorphic bihamiltonian structure decomposes into a product of a Kronecker bihamiltonian structure and a symplectic one if a…

We consider the space of functions almost in $L_p$ and endow it with the topology of asymptotic $L_p$-convergence. This yields a completely metrizable topological vector space which, on finite measure spaces, coincides with the space of…

In the setting of a metric space equipped with a doubling measure that supports a Poincar\'e inequality, we show that any set of finite perimeter can be approximated in the BV norm by a set whose topological and measure theoretic boundaries…

We answer in the negative Siegel's problem for $G$-functions, as formulated by Fischler and Rivoal. Roughly, we prove that there are $G$-functions that cannot be written as polynomial expressions in algebraic pullbacks of hypergeometric…

This paper introduces the proper notion of variational quasiconvexity associated to a group of diffeomorphisms. We prove a lower semicontinuity theorem connected to this notion. In the second part of the paper we apply this result to a…

We prove that the composition of a quasi-nearly subharmonic function and a quasiregular mappings of bounded multiplicity is quasi-nearly subharmonic. Also, we prove that if $u\circ f$ is quasi-nearly subharmonic for all quasi-nearly…

In this paper, we introduce new properties of the relative interior calculus for nearly convex sets, functions, and set-valued mappings. These properties are important for the development of duality theory in optimization. Then we…

We show that the minimization problem of any non-convex and non-lower semi-continuous function on a compact convex subset of a locally convex real topological vector space can be studied via an associated convex and lower semi-continuous…

We study energy functionals associated with quasi-linear Schr\"odinger operators on infinite graphs, and develop characterisations of (sub-)criticality via Green's functions, harmonic functions of minimal growth and capacities. We proof a…

We introduce a notion of quasiconvexity for continuous functions $f$ defined on the vector bundle of linear maps between the tangent spaces of a smooth Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ and $\mathbb{R}^m$, naturally generalizing the classical…

We consider several local versions of the doubling condition and Poincar\'e inequalities on metric spaces. Our first result is that in proper connected spaces, the weakest local assumptions self-improve to semilocal ones, i.e. holding…

In this work a linearly constrained minimization of a positive semidefinite quadratic functional is examined. Our results are concerning infinite dimensional real Hilbert spaces, with a singular positive operator related to the functional,…

Given a strictly positive measure, we characterize inner semicontinuous solid convex-valued mappings for which continuous functions which are selections almost everywhere are selections. This class contains continuous mappings as well as…

We investigate the existence of subinvariant metric functionals for commuting families of nonexpansive mappings in noncompact subsets of Banach spaces. Our findings underscore the practicality of metric functionals when searching for fixed…

We introduce the notion of {\it quasi-inner} function and show that the product $u=\rho_\infty\prod \rho_v$ of $m+1$ ratios of local {$L$-}factors {$\rho_v(z)=\gamma_v(z)/\gamma_v(1-z)$} over a finite set $F$ of places of the field of…

We investigate a class of composite nonconvex functions, where the outer function is the sum of univariate extended-real-valued convex functions and the inner function is the limit of difference-of-convex functions. A notable feature of…

In the study of locally convex quasi *-algebras an important role is played by representable linear functionals; i.e., functionals which allow a GNS-construction. This paper is mainly devoted to the study of the continuity of representable…

We provide a functional Rogers-Shephard type inequality for log-concave functions on $\mathbb R^n$ and any $1$-reducible $s$-cover of $[n]$. As a consequence, we derive a sharp local Liakopoulos-Meyer type inequality for $n$-dimensional…
