For proper lower semi-continuous functionals bounded below which do not increase upon polarization, an improved version of Ekeland's variational principle can be formulated in Banach spaces, which provides almost symmetric points.
We consider Borwein-Preiss and Ekeland variational principles using distance functions that neither is symmetric nor enjoy the triangular inequality. All the given results rely exclusively on the convergence and continuity behaviors induced…
Stochastic methods for minimizing a convex integral functional, as initiated by Robbins and Monro in the early 1950s, rely on the evaluation of a gradient (or subgradient if the function is not smooth) and moving in the corresponding…
In this short communication, we present a generalization of the Ekeland variational principle. The main result is established through standard tools of functional analysis and calculus of variations. The novelty here is a result involving…
The Poisson-Boltzmann equation is often presented via a variational formulation based on the electrostatic potential. However, the functional has the defect of being non-convex. It can not be used as a local minimization principle while…
Roughly speaking, Ekeland's Variational Principle (EkVP) (J. Math. Anal. Appl. 47 (1974), 324--353) asserts the existence of strict minima of some perturbed versions of lower semicontinuous functions defined on a complete metric space.…
The present paper is concerned with Ekeland Variational Principle (EkVP) and its equivalents (Caristi-Kirk fixed point theorem, Takahashi minimization principle, Oettli-Th\'era equilibrium version of EkVP) in quasi-uniform spaces. These…
In this paper, we establish a partial order principle, which is useful to deriving vector Ekeland variational principle (denoted by EVP). By using the partial order principle and extending Gerstewitz's functions, we obtain a vector EVP for…
Variational inequalities are a universal optimization paradigm that incorporate classical minimization and saddle point problems. Nowadays more and more tasks require to consider stochastic formulations of optimization problems. In this…
We derive the Euler-Lagrange equations for minimizers of causal variational principles in the non-compact setting with constraints, possibly prescribing symmetries. Considering first variations, we show that the minimizing measure is…
We establish new functional versions of the Blaschke-Santal\'o inequality on the volume product of a convex body which generalize to the non-symmetric setting an inequality of K. Ball and we give a simple proof of the case of equality. As a…
This paper first makes an attempt to investigate the partial information near optimal control of systems governed by forward-backward stochastic differential equations with observation noise under the assumption of a convex control domain.…
We present a short and flexible improvement-of-flatness argument adapted to the setting of exterior domains, where one is naturally led to work with annuli instead of balls. As a model application in the classical setting of minimal…
We establish Maximum Principles which apply to vectorial approximate minimizers of the general integral functional of Calculus of Variations. Our main result is a version of the Convex Hull Property. The primary advance compared to results…
This paper develops a novel approach to necessary optimality conditions for constrained variational problems defined in generally incomplete subspaces of absolutely continuous functions. Our approach involves reducing a variational problem…
We present a new duality theory for non-convex variational problems, under possibly mixed Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. The dual problem reads nicely as a linear programming problem, and our main result states that there is no…
We analyze Ekeland's variational principle in the context of reverse mathematics. We find that that the full variational principle is equivalent to $\Pi^1_1$-${\sf CA}_0$, a strong theory of second-order arithmetic, while natural…
We extend deconvolution in a periodic setting to deal with functional data. The resulting functional deconvolution model can be viewed as a generalization of a multitude of inverse problems in mathematical physics where one needs to recover…
In this paper, we handle the problem of the motion of the Foucault pendulum. We explore a new method induced from the De Alembert Principle giving the motional equations without small-amplitude oscillation approximation. The result of the…
We prove existence of radially symmetric solutions and validity of Euler-Lagrange necessary conditions for a class of variational problems such that neither direct methods nor indirect methods of Calculus of Variations apply. We obtain…
