We prove minimax theorems for lower semicontinuous functions defined on a Hilbert space. The main tool is the theory of $\Phi$-convex functions and sufficient and necessary conditions for the minimax equality to hold for $\Phi$-convex…

We provide theory for computing the lower semi-continuous convex envelope of functionals of the type f(x) plus an l2 misfit, and discuss applications to various non-convex optimization problems. The latter term is a data fit term whereas f…

We consider a countably generated and uniformly closed algebra of bounded functions. We assume that there is a lower semicontinuous, with respect to the supremum norm, quadratic form and that normal contractions operate in a certain sense.…

The concept of adjusted sublevel set for a quasiconvex function was introduced in \cite{AuHa05} and the local existence of a norm-to-weak$^*$ upper semicontinuous base-valued submap of the normal operator associated to the adjusted sublevel…

Given a cover $\mathcal{B}$ of a quasi-uniform space $Y$ we introduce a concept of lower semicontinuity for multifunctions $F:X\to 2^Y$, called $\mathcal{B}$-lsc. In this way, we get a common description of Vietoris-lsc, Hausdorff-lsc, and…

In the paper, by establishing the monotonicity of some functions involving the sine and cosine functions, the authors provide concise proofs of some known inequalities and find some new sharp inequalities involving the Seiffert,…

We study $H^1$ versus $C^1$ local minimizers for functionals defined on spaces of symmetric functions, namely functions that are invariant by the action of some subgroups of $\mathcal{O}(N)$. These functionals, in many cases, are associated…

We study the behavior of the smallest possible constants $d(a,b)$ and $d_n$ in Hardy inequalities $$ \int_a^b\left(\frac{1}{x}\int_a^xf(t)dt\right)^p\,dx\leq d(a,b)\,\int_a^b [f(x)]^p dx $$ and $$…

We prove necessary and sufficient conditions for the weak-$L^p$ boundedness, for $p \in (1,\infty)$, of a maximal operator on the infinite-dimensional torus. In the endpoint case $p=1$ we obtain the same weak-type inequality enjoyed by the…

In this paper, we unify and improve existing results on characterizing strict and almost stricty convex functions via subdifferential mapping, Moreau envelope, and proximal mappings. In particular, it is shown that if a convex function is…

This note provides another proof for the {\em convexity} ({\em strict convexity}) of $\log \det ( I + KX^{-1} )$ over the positive definite cone for any given positive semidefinite matrix $K \succeq 0$ (positive definite matrix $K \succ 0$)…

The main result of the paper is an extension of the Dirichlet problem from (closures of) bounded open domains U to arbitrary compact subsets X of the complex plane, i.e. the closure of the corresponding space of functions which are harmonic…

We prove some basic properties of quasinearly subharmonic functions and quasinearly subharmonic functions in the narrow sense.

We show a new functional limit theorem for weakly dependent regularly varying sequences of random vectors. As it turns out, the convergence takes place in the space of R^d valued c\`{a}dl\`{a}g functions endowed with the so-called weak M1…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{n}$ be bounded a domain. We prove under certain structural assumptions that the fractional maximal operator relative to $\Omega$ maps $L^{p}(\Omega) \to W^{1,p}(\Omega)$ for all $p > 1$, when the smoothness…

Let $(X, \mathscr{L}, \lambda)$ and $(Y, \mathscr{M}, \mu)$ be finite measure spaces for which there exist $A \in \mathscr{L}$ and $B \in \mathscr{M}$ with either $0 < \lambda(A) < 1 < \lambda(X)$ and $0 < \mu(B) < \mu(Y)$, or the other way…

An inequality of Brascamp-Lieb-Luttinger and of Rogers states that among subsets of Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$ of specified Lebesgue measures, balls centered at the origin are maximizers of certain functionals defined by…

There exists a function f: N -> N such that for every positive integer d, every quasi-finite field K and every projective hypersurface X of degree d and dimension at least f(d), the set X(K) is non-empty. This is a special case of a more…

A d.c. (delta-convex) function on a normed linear space is a function representable as a difference of two continuous convex functions. We show that an infinite dimensional analogue of Hartman's theorem on stability of d.c. functions under…

If $f$ is a real valued weakly lower semi-continous function on a Banach space $X$ and $C$ a weakly compact subset of $X$, we show that the set of $x \in X$ such that $z \mapsto \|x-z\|-f(z)$ attains its supremum on $C$ is dense in $X$. We…
