The property of isotonicity of a continuous convex function defined on the entire space or only on the positive cone is characterized via subdifferentials. Numerous examples illustrating the obtained results are included.
To each real continuous function f there is an associated trace function on real symmetric matrices Tr f. The classical Klein lemma states that f is convex if and only if Tr f is convex. In this note we present an algebraic strengthening of…
A version of the classical Klee-And\^o Theorem states the following: For every Banach space $X$, ordered by a closed generating cone $C\subseteq X$, there exists some $\alpha>0$ so that, for every $x\in X$, there exist $x^{\pm}\in C$ so…
Consider the self-map F of the space of real-valued test functions on the line which takes a test function f to the test function sending a real number x to f(f(x))-f(0). We show that F is discontinuous, although its restriction to the…
We address a classical open question by H.Brezis and R.Ignat concerning the characterization of constant functions through double integrals that involve difference quotients. Our first result is a counterexample to the question in its full…
Structural properties are given for $D(K)$, the Banach algebra of (complex) differences of bounded semi-continuous functons on a metric space $K$. For example, it is proved that if all finite derived sets of $K$ are non-empty, then a…
We establish a fixed point theorem for mappings of square matrices of all sizes which respect the matrix sizes and direct sums of matrices. The conclusions are stronger if such a mapping also respects matrix similarities, i.e., is a…
New concepts related to approximating a Lipschitz function between Banach spaces by affine functions are introduced. Results which clarify when such approximations are possible are proved and in some cases a complete characterization of the…
We extend the well known criteria of reflexivity of Banach lattices due to Lozanovsky and Lotz to the class of finitely generated Banach $C(K)$- modules. Namely we prove that a finitely generated Banach $C(K)$-module is reflexive if and…
For various function spaces of the form gU or U+gV, U and V e.g. almost periodic functions AP, (bounded) uniformly continuous functions BUC, UC, g(t) = exp(it^2), their properties are discussed, especially a Loomis type condition (Delta)…
The aim of this paper is to give an existence result for a class of one-dimensional, non-convex, non-coercive problems in the Calculus of Variations. The main tools for the proof are an existence theorem in the convex case and the closure…
The main goal of this article is to show that for every (reflexive) infinite-dimensional Banach space $X$ there exists a reflexive Banach space $Y$ and $T, R \in \mathcal{L}(X,Y)$ such that $R$ is a rank-one operator, $\|T+R\|>\|T\|$ but…
Suppose that $f$ belongs to a suitably defined complete metric space $ {{\cal C}}^{{\alpha}}$ of H\"older $ {\alpha}$-functions defined on $[0,1]$. We are interested in whether one can find large (in the sense of Hausdorff, or lower/upper…
For any complex Banach space $X$, let $J$ denote the duality mapping of $X$. For any unit vector $x$ in $X$ and any ($C_0$) contraction semigroup $(T_t)_{t>0}$ on $X$, Baillon and Guerre-Delabriere proved that if $X$ is a smooth reflexive…
In this paper, we study the existence of fixed points for mappings defined on complete (compact) metric space (X, d) satisfying a general contractive (contraction) inequality depended on another function. These conditions are analogous to…
We classify all continuous valuations on the space of finite convex functions with values in the same space which are dually epi-translation-invariant and equi- resp. contravariant with respect to volume-preserving linear maps. We thereby…
In this paper, the convergence of alternating minimization is established for non-smooth convex optimization in Banach spaces, and novel rates of convergence are provided. As objective function a composition of a smooth and a non-smooth…
Description of linear continuous functionals on a space of rapidly decreasing infinitely differentiable functions on an unbounded closed convex set in $\mathbb R^n$ in terms of their Fourier-Laplace transform is obtained.
Let $C_b(K)$ be the set of all bounded continuous (real or complex) functions on a complete metric space $K$ and $A$ a closed subspace of $C_b(K)$. Using the variational method, it is shown that the set of all strong peak functions in $A$…
A reflexive Banach space $X$ with a basis $(e_i)$ is constructed having the property that every monotone basis is block finitely representable in each block basis of $X$.
