Strong Klee-And\^o Theorems through an Open Mapping Theorem for cone-valued multi-functions
Abstract
A version of the classical Klee-And\^o Theorem states the following: For every Banach space , ordered by a closed generating cone , there exists some so that, for every , there exist so that and . The conclusion of the Klee-And\^o Theorem is what is known as a conormality property. We prove stronger and somewhat more general versions of the Klee-And\^o Theorem for both conormality and coadditivity (a property that is intimately related to conormality). A corollary to our result shows that the functions , as above, may be chosen to be bounded, continuous, and positively homogeneous, with a similar conclusion yielded for coadditivity. Furthermore, we show that the Klee-And\^o Theorem generalizes beyond ordered Banach spaces to Banach spaces endowed with arbitrary collections of cones. Proofs of our Klee-And\^o Theorems are achieved through an Open Mapping Theorem for cone-valued multi-functions/correspondences. We very briefly discuss a potential further strengthening of The Klee-And\^o Theorem beyond what is proven in this paper, and motivate a conjecture that there exists a Banach space , ordered by a closed generating cone , for which there exist no Lipschitz functions satisfying for all .

Major rewrite. Large parts were removed which a referee pointed out can be proven through much easier methods
