We consider compact group actions on C*- and W*- algebras. We prove results that relate the duality property of the action (as defined in the Introduction) with other relevant properties of the system such as the relative commutant of the…

An investigation is launched into the fundamental characteristics of operations on and between sets, with a focus on compact convex sets and star sets (compact sets star-shaped with respect to the origin) in $n$-dimensional Euclidean space…

The demiclosedness principle is one of the key tools in nonlinear analysis and fixed point theory. In this note, this principle is extended and made more flexible by two mutually orthogonal affine subspaces. Versions for finitely many…

We prove that every nonnegative continuous real-valued function on a given compact metric space is the uniform limit of some increasing sequence of nonnegative simple functions being linear combinations of indicators of open sets; here the…

In this paper, we put the issue of dynamic equivalence of control systems in the context of pullbacks of coframings on infinite jet bundles over the state manifolds. While much attention has been given to differentially flat systems, i.e.…

In this paper, we consider the locally convex spaces of entire functions with growth given by proximate orders, and study the representation as a differential operator of a continuous homomorphism from such a space to another one. As a…

We consider the class of smooth convex functions defined over an open convex set. We show that this class is essentially different than the class of smooth convex functions defined over the entire linear space by exhibiting a function that…

Let $X$ be a normed space of a finite dimension at least two, and $C\subsetneq X$ a closed convex set with nonempty interior. We are interested in extending Lipschitz quasiconvex functions on $C$ to quasiconvex functions on $X$. We show…

In this note we provide a simple proof of some properties enjoyed by convex functions having the engulfing property. In particular, making use only of results peculiar to convex analysis, we prove that differentiability and strict convexity…

In this paper we generalize the factorization theorem of Gouveia, Parrilo and Thomas to a broader class of convex sets. Given a general convex set, we define a slack operator associated to the set and its polar according to whether the…

Monotone convex operators and time-consistent systems of operators appear naturally in stochastic optimization and mathematical finance in the context of pricing and risk measurement. We study the dual representation of a monotone convex…

We study the closure of the convex hull of a compact set in a complete CAT(0) space. First we give characterization results in terms of compact sets and the closure of their convex hulls for locally compact CAT(0) spaces that are either…

We introduce extremal affine surface areas in a functional setting. We show their main properties. Among them are linear invariance, isoperimetric inequalities and monotonicity properties. We establish a new duality formula, which shows…

This paper provides an unique dual representation of set-valued lower semi-continuous quasiconvex and convex functions. The results are based on a duality result for increasing set valued functions.

We consider mesh functions which are discrete convex in the sense that their central second order directional derivatives are positive. Analogous to the case of a uniformly bounded sequence of convex functions, we prove that the uniform…

We show that the constrained characteristic function is a complete unitary invariant for J-constrained completely non-coisometric (c.n.c.) row contractions, where J is a WOT-closed two-sided ideal of the noncommutative analytic Toeplitz…

We define the notions of a compact perception pair, compactification of a perception pair, and compactification of a space of group equivariant non-expansive operators. We prove that every perception pair with totally bounded space of…

The property of being shift invariant and being reflexive or transitive in the case of the space of (asymmetric) truncated Toeplitz operators, and the space of (asymmetric) dual truncated operators is investigated. Most of the results…

We prove conditions for the existence of a continuous linear right inverse for a surjective convolution operator in spaces of germs of analytic functions on convex subsets of the complex plane. Considered convex sets have a countable…

We study the compactness of composition operators on the Bergman spaces of certain bounded pseudoconvex domains in $\mathbb{C}^n$ with non-trivial analytic disks contained in the boundary. As a consequence we characterize that compactness…
