Well-posedness of a class of perturbed optimization problems in Banach spaces

Let X be a Banach space and Z a nonempty subset of X. Let J:Z→R be a lower semicontinuous function bounded from below and p?1. This paper is concerned with the perturbed optimization problem of finding z₀∈Z such that ‖x−z₀p^‖+J(z₀)=infz∈Z{‖x−zp^‖+J(z)}, which is denoted by minJ(x,Z). The notions of the J-strictly convex with respect to Z and of the Kadec with respect to Z are introduced and used in the present paper. It is proved that if X is a Kadec Banach space with respect to Z and Z is a closed relatively boundedly weakly compact subset, then the set of all x∈X for which every minimizing sequence of the problem minJ(x,Z) has a converging subsequence is a dense Gδ-subset of X?Z₀, where Z₀ is the set of all points z∈Z such that z is a solution of the problem minJ(z,Z). If additionally p>1 and X is J-strictly convex with respect to Z, then the set of all x∈X for which the problem minJ(x,Z) is well-posed is a dense Gδ-subset of X?Z₀.
