The main focus of this paper is to study multi-valued linear monotone operators in the contexts of locally convex spaces via the use of their Fitzpatrick and Penot functions. Notions such as maximal monotonicity, uniqueness,…

Here, question raised by Borwein and Yao has been settled by establishing that the sum of two maximal monotone operators A and B is maximal monotone with the condition that A is of type (FPV) and satisfies Rockafellar's constraints…

The most important open problem in Monotone Operator Theory concerns the maximal monotonicity of the sum of two maximally monotone operators provided that Rockafellar's constraint qualification holds. In this paper, we prove the maximal…

The goal of this article is to give a positive answer to Rockafellar's maximality of the sum conjecture in the linear multi-valued operator case.

In this note we answer positively to two conjectures proposed by Nieraeth (2023) about the maximal operator on rescaled Banach function spaces. We also obtain a new criterion saying when the maximal operator bounded on a Banach function…

This work deals with a maximal monotone operator $A$ of type (D) in a Banach space whose dual space is strictly convex. We establish some representations for the value $Ax$ at a given point $x$ via its values at nearby points of $x$. We…

In this note we provide regularity conditions of closedness type which guarantee some surjectivity results concerning the sum of two maximal monotone operators by using representative functions. The first regularity condition we give…

We present a simple proof of the maximal monotonicity of the subdifferential operator in general Banach spaces. Using the Fitzpatrick function the Rockafellar surjectivity theorem follows as a corollary.

We analyze and characterize maximal monotonicity of linear relations (set-valued operators with linear graphs). An important tool in our study are Fitzpatrick functions. The results obtained partially extend work on linear and at most…

In a recent paper in Journal of Convex Analysis the authors studied, in non-reflexive Banach spaces, a class of maximal monotone operators, characterized by the existence of a function in Fitzpatrick's family of the operator which conjugate…

Maximally monotone operators play important roles in optimization, variational analysis and differential equations. Finding zeros of maximally monotone operators has been a central topic. In a Hilbert space, we show that most resolvents are…

We give, for general Banach spaces, a characterization of the sequential lower limit of maximal monotone operators of type (D) and prove its representability. As a consequence, using a recent extension of the Moreau-Yosida regularization…

In this paper, some topics of monotone operator theory in the setting of Hadamard spaces are investigated. For a fixed element $p$ in a Hadamard space $X$, the notion of $p$-Fenchel conjugate is introduced and a type of the Fenchel-Young…

If $L$ is a selfdual Lagrangian $L$ on a reflexive phase space $X\times X^*$, then the vector field $x\to \bar\partial L(x):=\{p\in X^*; (p,x)\in \partial L(x,p)\}$ is maximal monotone. Conversely, any maximal monotone operator $T$ on $X$…

We show that the lower limit of a sequence of maximal monotone operators on a reflexive Banach space is a representable monotone operator. As a consequence, we obtain that the variational sum of maximal monotone operators and the…

This paper studies a new maximal operator introduced by Hyt\"onen, McIntosh and Portal in 2008 for functions taking values in a Banach space. The L^p-boundedness of this operator depends on the range space; certain requirements on type and…

In this paper, we give two explicit examples of unbounded linear maximal monotone operators. The first unbounded linear maximal monotone operator $S$ on $\ell^{2}$ is skew. We show its domain is a proper subset of the domain of its adjoint…

In this work we are concerned with maximality of monotone operators representable by certain convex functions in non-reflexive Banach spaces. We also prove that these maximal monotone operators satisfy a Bronsted-Rockafellar type property.…

We are concerned with surjectivity of perturbations of maximal monotone operators in non-reflexive Banach spaces. While in a reflexive setting, a classical surjectivity result due to Rockafellar gives a necessary and sufficient condition to…

We study an abstract linear operator equation on a Banach space by using the inverse of the sum of two sectorial operators. We prove that the boundedness of a special type of operator valued $H^\infty$-calculus is sufficient for maximal…
