Abstract: | A characterization of Lipschitz behavior of functions defined on Riemannian manifolds is given in this paper. First, it is extended the concept of proximal subgradient and some results of proximal analysis from Hilbert space to Riemannian manifold setting. A technique introduced by Clarke, Stern and Wolenski [F.H. Clarke, R.J. Stern, P.R. Wolenski, Subgradient criteria for monotonicity, the Lipschitz condition, and convexity, Canad. J. Math. 45 (1993) 1167-1183], for generating proximal subgradients of functions defined on a Hilbert spaces, is also extended to Riemannian manifolds in order to provide that characterization. A number of examples of Lipschitz functions are presented so as to show that the Lipschitz behavior of functions defined on Riemannian manifolds depends on the Riemannian metric. |
