Supremizers of inner <Emphasis Type="Italic">γ</Emphasis>-convex functions

A real-valued function f defined on a convex subset D of some normed linear space is said to be inner γ-convex w.r.t. some fixed roughness degree γ > 0 if there is a such that holds for all satisfying ||x ₀ − x ₁|| = νγ and . This kind of roughly generalized convex functions is introduced in order to get some properties similar to those of convex functions relative to their supremum. In this paper, numerous properties of their supremizers are given, i.e., of such satisfying lim . For instance, if an upper bounded and inner γ-convex function, which is defined on a convex and bounded subset D of some inner product space, has supremizers, then there exists a supremizer lying on the boundary of D relative to aff D or at a γ-extreme point of D, and if D is open relative to aff D or if dim D ≤ 2 then there is certainly a supremizer at a γ-extreme point of D. Another example is: if D is an affine set and is inner γ-convex and bounded above, then for all , and if 2 ≤ dim D < ∞ then each is a supremizer of f.      

The Schauder fixed point theorem in geodesic spaces

We give a direct proof of Schauder's fixed point theorem in the setting of geodesic metric spaces, generalizing the classical Schauder's theorem and improving a recent version of this theorem in CAT(κ)$\mathrm{CAT}(\kappa )$ spaces. As an application we prove an existence result for a variational inequality in the setting of CAT(κ)$\mathrm{CAT}(\kappa )$ spaces.

On Efficiency Conditions for Nonsmooth Vector Equilibrium Problems with Equilibrium Constraints

In this article, necessary conditions of Fritz John type for weak efficient solutions of a nonsmooth vector equilibrium problem involving equilibrium constraints (VEPEC) in terms of the Clarke subdifferentials are established. Under constraint qualifications which are suitable for (VEPEC), necessary conditions of Kuhn-Tucker type for efficiency are derived. Under assumptions on generalized convexity of data, sufficient conditions for efficiency are developed. Some applications to vector variational inequalities and vector optimization problems with equilibrium constraints are also given.     

Compact,convex sets in R n and a new banach lattice. II.- Application: An approximation problem.

We develop a calculus structure in the Banach lattice introduced in a preceding paper, having in mind an approximation problem appearing in non-smooth optimization. We show that the essential results depend as much on the order structure as on the analytical one.     

Necessary and sufficient second order optimality conditions for multiobjective problems with C1 data

In this paper, we obtain necessary and sufficient second order optimality conditions for multiobjective problems using second order directional derivatives. We propose the notion of second order KT-pseudoinvex problems and we prove that this class of problems has the following property: a problem is second order KT-pseudoinvex if and only if all its points that satisfy the second order necessary optimality condition are weakly efficient. Also we obtain second order sufficient conditions for efficiency.     

Asymptotic behavior of averaged and firmly nonexpansive mappings in geodesic spaces

We further study averaged and firmly nonexpansive mappings in the setting of geodesic spaces with a main focus on the asymptotic behavior of their Picard iterates. We use methods of proof mining to obtain an explicit quantitative version of a generalization to geodesic spaces of a result on the asymptotic behavior of Picard iterates for firmly nonexpansive mappings proved by Reich and Shafrir. From this result we obtain effective uniform bounds on the asymptotic regularity for firmly nonexpansive mappings. Besides this, we derive effective rates of asymptotic regularity for sequences generated by two algorithms used in the study of the convex feasibility problem in a nonlinear setting.     

Geometric properties of basic hypergeometric functions

In this article, we consider basic hypergeometric functions introduced by Heine. We study the mapping properties of certain ratios of basic hypergeometric functions having shifted parameters and show that they map the domains of analyticity onto domains convex in the direction of the imaginary axis. In order to investigate these mapping properties, some useful identities are obtained in terms of basic hypergeometric functions. In addition, we find conditions under which the basic hypergeometric functions are in a q-close-to-convex family.
