We introduce the notion of a good map between topological spaces: a continuous map $f:X \to Y$ is *good* if for every non-empty irreducible locally closed subset $U \subseteq X$, there exists a non-empty open subset $W \subseteq Y$ such…

In many cases the convexity of the image of a linear map with range is $R^n$ is automatic because of the facial structure of the domain of the map. We develop a four step procedure for proving this kind of ``automatic convexity''. To make…

We find conditions for a smooth nonlinear map $f:U\rightarrow V$ between open subsets of Hilbert or Banach spaces to be locally convex in the sense that for some $c$ and each positive $\varepsilon<c$ the image $% f(B_\varepsilon(x))$ of…

The close relation between properness and closedness of maps is well-known. For instance, for Fredholm mappings of infinite dimensional Banach manifolds, these properties are equivalent. On the other hand, properness of maps plays an…

We discuss topological versions of the closed graph theorem, where continuity is inferred from near continuity in tandem with suitable conditions on source or target spaces. We seek internal characterizations of spaces satisfying a closed…

We establish a localized Bochner-type rigidity theorem for harmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds. Let $f : (M,g) \to (\overline{M},\overline{g})$ be a harmonic map from a compact manifold. Instead of assuming a global nonpositivity…

The main purpose of this paper is to introduce various convexity concepts in terms of a positive Chebyshev system $\omega$ and give a systematic investigation of the relations among them. We generalize a celebrated theorem of…

In this paper we prove a convexity and fibre-connectedness theorem for proper maps constructed by Thimm's trick on a connected Hamiltonian $G$-space $M$ that generate a Hamiltonian torus action on an open dense submanifold. Since these maps…

The classical Pfaff-Darboux theorem, which provides local 'normal forms' for $1$-forms on manifolds, has applications in the theory of certain economic models [Chiappori P.-A., Ekeland I., Found. Trends Microecon. 5 (2009), 1-151]. However,…

We show that proper Lie groupoids are locally linearizable. As a consequence, the orbit space of a proper Lie groupoid is a smooth orbispace (a Hausdorff space which locally looks like the quotient of a vector space by a linear compact Lie…

Given a semialgebraic set-valued map $F \colon \mathbb{R}^n \rightrightarrows \mathbb{R}^m$ with closed graph, we show that the map $F$ is Holder metrically subregular and that the following conditions are equivalent: (i) $F$ is an open map…

In this note, we introduce a suitable generalization of the momentum map for nonholonomic field theories and prove a covariant form of the nonholonomic momentum equation. We show that these covariant objects coincide with their counterparts…

We give several versions of local and global inverse mapping theorem for tame non necessarily smooth, mappings. Here tame mapping means a mapping which is subanalytic or, more generally, definable in some o-minimal structure. Our sufficient…

In this paper we will establish some necessary condition and sufficient condition respectively for a set-valued mapping to have the Lipschitz-like property relative to a closed set by employing regular normal cone and limiting normal cone…

Optimal maps, solutions to the optimal transportation problems, are completely determined by the corresponding c-convex potential functions. In this paper, we give simple sufficient conditions for a smooth function to be c-convex when the…

We prove a convexity theorem for the image of the moment map of a Hamiltonian torus action on a $b^m$-symplectic manifold.

We show that the cone associated with a moment map for an action of a torus on a contact compact connected manifold is a convex polyhedral cone and that the moment map has connected fibers provided the dimension of the torus is bigger than…

A commutative associative algebra A with an identity over the field of real numbers which has a basis, where all elements are invertible, is considered in the work. Moreover, among matrixes consisting of the structure constants of A, there…

Energy-minimizing constraint maps are a natural extension of the obstacle problem within a vectorial framework. Due to inherent topological constraints, these maps manifest a diverse structure that includes singularities similar to harmonic…

The push-forward operation enables one to redistribute a probability measure through a deterministic map. It plays a key role in statistics and optimization: many learning problems (notably from optimal transport, generative modeling, and…
