Moreau–Rockafellar Theorems for Nonconvex Set-Valued Maps

In this paper, we introduce the notion of (Benson) proper subgradient of a set-valued map and prove that, for some class of nonconvex set-valued maps, a proper subgradient of the sum of two set-valued maps can be expressed as the sum of two proper subgradients of these maps. This property is also established for weak subgradients. A result in Ref. [Lin, L.J.: J. Math. Anal. Appl. 186, 30–51 (1994)], obtained under some convexity assumption, is included as a special case of the corresponding result of this paper. The author thanks the anonymous referees for their valuable remarks.

A generalization of Hahn-Banach extension theorem

In this paper, the notion of affinelike set-valued maps is introduced and some properties of these maps are presented. Then a new Hahn-Banach extension theorem with a K-convex set-valued map dominated by an affinelike set-valued map is obtained.     

On Ha＇s Version of Set-valued Ekeland＇s Variational Principle

By using the concept of cone extensions and Dancs-Hegedus-Medvegyev theorem, Ha [Some variants of the Ekeland variational principle for a set-valued map. J. Optim. Theory Appl., 124, 187–206 (2005)] established a new version of Ekeland’s variational principle for set-valued maps, which is expressed by the existence of strict approximate minimizer for a set-valued optimization problem. In this paper, we give an improvement of Ha’s version of set-valued Ekeland’s variational principle. Our proof is direct and it need not use Dancs-Hegedus-Medvegyev theorem. From the improved Ha’s version, we deduce a Caristi-Kirk’s fixed point theorem and a Takahashi’s nonconvex minimization theorem for set-valued maps. Moreover, we prove that the above three theorems are equivalent to each other.

Near-Subconvexlikeness in Vector Optimization with Set-Valued Functions

A new class of generalized convex set-valued functions, termed nearly-subconvexlike functions, is introduced. This class is a generalization of cone-subconvexlike maps, nearly-convexlike set-valued functions, and preinvex set-valued functions. Properties for the nearly-subconvexlike functions are derived and a theorem of the alternative is proved. A Lagrangian multiplier theorem is established and two scalarization theorems are obtained for vector optimization.     

A mod 2 index theorem for the twisted Signature operator

A mod 2 index theorem for the twisted Signature operator on 4 _q + 1 dimensional manifolds is established. This result generalizes a result of Farber and Turaev, which was proved for the case of orthogonal flat bundles, to arbitrary real vector bundles. It also provides an analytic interpretation of the sign of the Poincare-Reidemeister scalar product defined by Farber and Turaev.

Calculus Rules for Derivatives of Multimaps

In this paper, by virtue of two intermediate derivative-like multifunctions, which depend on an element in the intermediate space, some exact calculus rules are obtained for calculating the derivatives of the composition of two set-valued maps. Similar rules are displayed for sums. Moreover, by using these calculus rules, the solution map of a parametrized variational inequality and the variations of the feasible set of a parametrized mathematical programming problem are studied. This research was partially supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (Grant numbers: 10871216 and 60574073).
