The class of subsets of locally convex spaces called $\mu$-compact sets is considered. This class contains all compact sets as well as several noncompact sets widely used in applications. It is shown that many results well known for compact…

We study mappings that satisfy the inverse modulus inequality of Poletsky type in a fixed domain. It is shown that, under some additional restrictions, the image of a ball under such mappings contains a fixed ball uniformly over the class.…

In this work, using a new geometrical approach we study to the existence of the fixed-point of mappings that independence of the smoothness, and also of their single-values or multi-values. This work proved the theorems that generalize in…

In this note, we state and give the main ideas of the proof of a real convexity theorem for group-valued momentum maps. This result is a quasi-Hamiltonian analogue of the O'Shea-Sjamaar theorem in the usual Hamiltonian setting. We prove…

Let $E,F$ be two topological spaces and $u:E\rightarrow F$ be a map. \ If $F$ is Haudorff and $u$ is continuous, then its graph is closed. \ \ The Closed Graph Theorem establishes the converse when $E$ and $F$ are suitable objects of…

The convexity theorem of Atiyah and Guillemin-Sternberg says that any connected compact manifold with Hamiltonian torus action has a moment map whose image is the convex hull of the image of the fixed point set. Sjamaar-Lerman proved that…

The convexity and Morse-theoretic properties of moment maps in symplectic geometry typically fail for presymplectic manifolds. We find a condition on presymplectic moment maps that prevents these failures. Our result applies for instance to…

The following selection theorem is established:\\ Let $X$ be a compactum possessing a binary normal subbase $\mathcal S$ for its closed subsets. Then every set-valued $\mathcal S$-continuous map $\Phi\colon Z\to X$ with closed $\mathcal…

There are several notions of a smooth map from a convex set to a cartesian space. Some of these notions coincide, but not all of them do. We construct a real-valued function on a convex subset of the plane that does not extend to a smooth…

Let a torus T act effectively on a compact connected cooriented contact manifold, and let Psi be the natural momentum map on the symplectization. We prove that, if dim T > 2, the union of the origin with the image of Psi is a convex…

According to the Ambrosetti-Prodi theorem, the map $F(u)= - \Delta u - f(u)$ between appropriate functional spaces is a global fold. Among the hypotheses, the convexity of the function $f$ is required. We show in two different ways that,…
