We prove the convergence of the proximal point algorithm for finding the unique minimizer of a strongly quasiconvex function in general nonlinear Hadamard spaces, generalizing a recent result due to F. Lara. Our argument is rather…

We characterise in this work the $q$-plurisubharmonic functions in terms of the theory of viscosity solutions. We show that an upper semicontinuous function is $q$-plurisubharmonic if and only if its complex Hessian has at most $q$ strictly…

We present in a unified setting the foundations for a theory of non-bilinear Dirichlet functionals on Hilbert spaces. We prove known and new equivalences between non-linear semigroups, non-linear resolvents, non-linear generators, and their…

The underlying theme of this article is a class of sequences in metric structures satisfying a much weaker kind of Cauchy condition, namely quasi-Cauchy sequences (introduced in \cite{bc}) that has been used to define several new concepts…

Motivated by an influential result of Bourgain and Tzafriri, we consider continuous matrix functions $A:\mathbb{R}\to M_{n\times n}$ and lower $\ell_2$-norm bounds associated with their restriction to certain subspaces. We prove that for…

We show that high-dimensional analogues of the sine function (more precisely, the d-dimensional polar sine and the d-th root of the d-dimensional hypersine) satisfy a simplex-type inequality in a real pre-Hilbert space H. Adopting the…

The well-known formula $det(A\cdot B)=\det A \cdot \det B$ can be easily proved for finite dimensional matrices but it may be incorrect for the functional determinants of differential operators, including the ones which are relevant for…

In this paper we give various characterizations of quasiopen sets and quasicontinuous functions on metric spaces. For complete metric spaces equipped with a doubling measure supporting a p-Poincar\'e inequality we show that quasiopen and…

We define an equivalence relation on integer compositions and show that two ribbon Schur functions are identical if and only if their defining compositions are equivalent in this sense. This equivalence is completely determined by means of…

We give an extension to a nonconvex setting of the classical radial representation result for lower semicontinuous envelope of a convex function on the boundary of its effective domain. We introduce the concept of radial uniform upper…

Let $A$ be a positive definite operator on a Hilbert space $H$, and $|||.|||$ be a unitarily invariant norm on $B(H)$. We show that if $f$ is an operator monotone function on $(0,\infty)$ and $n\in \mathbb{N}$, then $|||D^n…

We prove two compactness results for function spaces with finite Dirichlet energy of half-space nonlocal gradients. In each of these results, we provide sufficient conditions on a sequence of kernel functions that guarantee the asymptotic…

We introduce and study a new class of generalized convex functions termed star quasiconvex functions. This class includes convex, star-convex, quasiconvex, quasar-convex, and positively homogeneous functions of any degree $p>0$ as special…

We establish the first partial regularity result for local minima of strongly $\mathscr{A}$-quasiconvex integrals in the case where the differential operator $\mathscr{A}$ possesses an elliptic potential $\mathbb{A}$. As the main…

We prove that a function $f:X\to Y$ from a first-countable (more generally, Preiss-Simon) space $X$ to a regular space $Y$ is weakly discontinuous (which means that every subspace $A\subset X$ contains an open dense subset $U\subset A$ such…

We consider convex sets and functions over idempotent semifields, like the max-plus semifield. We show that if $K$ is a conditionally complete idempotent semifield, with completion $\bar{K}$, a convex function $K^n\to\bar{K}$ which is lower…

We prove that if f : R^N --> R is quasiconvex and U is open in the density topology of R^N, then sup_U f = ess sup_U f, while inf_U f = ess inf_U f if and only if the equality holds when U = R^N. The first (second) property is typical of…

We develop a functional calculus on Archimedean vector lattices for semicontinuous positively homogeneous real-valued functions defined on $\R^n$ which are bounded on the unit sphere. It is further shown that this semicontinuous Archimedean…

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…

In this paper, we obtain subdifferential representation of a proper $w^*$-lower semicontinous convex function on $X^*$ as follows: Let $g$ be a proper convex $w^*$-lower semicontinuous function on $X^*$. Assume that int dom $g$…
