Nuovi risultati sulla semicontinuità inferiore di certi funzionali integrali

Luigi Ambrosio (1985)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

Given an open subset Ω of n and a Borel function f : Ω × × n [ 0 , + [ , conditions on f are given which assure the lower semicontinuity of the functional Ω f ( x , u , D u ) d x with respect to different topologies.

On co-ordinated quasi-convex functions

M. Emin Özdemir, Ahmet Ocak Akdemir, Çetin Yıldız (2012)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

A function f : I , where I is an interval, is said to be a convex function on I if f ( t x + ( 1 - t ) y ) t f ( x ) + ( 1 - t ) f ( y ) holds for all x , y I and t [ 0 , 1 ] . There are several papers in the literature which discuss properties of convexity and contain integral inequalities. Furthermore, new classes of convex functions have been introduced in order to generalize the results and to obtain new estimations. We define some new classes of convex functions that we name quasi-convex, Jensen-convex, Wright-convex, Jensen-quasi-convex and Wright-quasi-convex functions...

On relations among the generalized second-order directional derivatives

Karel Pastor (2001)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

In the paper, we deal with the relations among several generalized second-order directional derivatives. The results partially solve the problem which of the second-order optimality conditions is more useful.

On semiconvexity properties of rotationally invariant functions in two dimensions

Miroslav Šilhavý (2004)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Let f be a function defined on the set 𝐌 2 × 2 of all 2 by 2 matrices that is invariant with respect to left and right multiplications of its argument by proper orthogonal matrices. The function f can be represented as a function f ˜ of the signed singular values of its matrix argument. The paper expresses the ordinary convexity, polyconvexity, and rank 1 convexity of f in terms of its representation f ˜ .
