Level proximal subdifferential was introduced by Rockafellar recently for studying proximal mappings of possibly nonconvex functions. In this paper a systematic study of level proximal subdifferential is given. We characterize variational…

In this paper, an upper semismooth function is defined to be a lower semicontinuous function whose radial subderivative satisfies a mild directional upper semicontinuity property. Examples of upper semismooth functions are the proper lower…

We introduce the resolvent composition, a monotonicity-preserving operation between a linear operator and a set-valued operator, as well as the proximal composition, a convexity-preserving operation between a linear operator and a function.…

The primary goal of the paper is to establish characteristic properties of (extended) real-valued functions defined on normed vector spaces that admit the representation as the lower envelope of their minimal (with respect to pointwise…

In [2] we characterized in terms of a quadratic growth condition various metric regularity properties of the subdifferential of a lower semicontinuous convex function acting in a Hilbert space. Motivated by some recent results in [16] where…

We give an example of a convex, finite and lower semicontinuous function whose subdifferential is everywhere empty. This is possible since the function is defined on an incomplete normed space. The function serves as a universal…

We provide some necessary and sufficient conditions for a proper lower semicontinuous convex function, defined on a real Banach space, to be locally or globally Lipschitz continuous. Our criteria rely on the existence of a bounded selection…

In this work, we construct a proximal average for two prox-bounded functions, which recovers the classical proximal average for two convex functions. The new proximal average transforms continuously in epi-topology from one proximal hull to…

A hypodifferential is a compact family of affine mappings that defines a local max-type approximation of a nonsmooth convex function. We present a general theory of hypodifferentials of nonsmooth convex functions defined on a Banach space.…

This work provides calculus for the Fr\'echet and limiting subdifferential of the pointwise supremum given by an arbitrary family of lower semicontinuous functions. We start our study showing fuzzy results about the Fr\'echet…

The directional subdifferential of the value function gives an estimate on how much the optimal value changes under a perturbation in a certain direction. In this paper we derive upper estimates for the directional limiting and singular…

Based on the needs of convergence proofs of preconditioned proximal point methods, we introduce notions of partial strong submonotonicity and partial (metric) subregularity of set-valued maps. We study relationships between these two…

Within convex analysis, a rich theory with various applications has been evolving since the proximal average of convex functions was first introduced over a decade ago. When one considers the subdifferential of the proximal average, a…

The aim of this work is to provide formulae for the subdifferential and the conjungate function of the supremun function over an arbitrary family of functions. The work is principally motivated by the case when data functions are lower…

We consider a stochastic version of the proximal point algorithm for optimization problems posed on a Hilbert space. A typical application of this is supervised learning. While the method is not new, it has not been extensively analyzed in…

In the article the author is studying the twice codifferentiable functions, defined by Prof. V.Ph. Demyanov, and some methods for calculating their codifferentials. At the beginning easier case is considered when a function is twice…

We provide comparison principles for convex functions through its proximal mappings. Consequently, we prove that the norm of the proximal operator determines a convex the function up to a constant. A new characterization of Lipschitzianity…

The paper studies generalized differentiability properties of the marginal function of parametric optimal control problems of semilinear elliptic partial differential equations. We establish upper estimates for the regular and the limiting…

We show that a point is solution of the Minty variational inequality of subdifferential type for a given function if and only if the function is increasing along rays starting from that point. This provides a characterization of the…

We study resolvent estimates for non-selfadjoint semiclassical pseudodifferential operators with double characteristics. Assuming that the quadratic approximation along the double characteristics is elliptic, we obtain polynomial upper…
