Delta-convex mappings between Banach spaces and applications

We show that delta-convex mappings have many good differentiability properties of convex functions and the class of them is very stable. For example, the class of locally delta-convex mappings is closed under superpositions and (in some situations) under inverses. Some operators which occur naturally in the theory of integral and differential equations are shown to be delta-convex. As an application of our general results, we show that some "solving operators" of such equations are delta-convex and consequently have good differentiability properties.
