On the second order derivatives of convex functions on the Heisenberg group

Cristian E. Gutiérrez, Annamaria Montanari (2004)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

Similarity:

In the euclidean setting the celebrated Aleksandrov-Busemann-Feller theorem states that convex functions are a.e. twice differentiable. In this paper we prove that a similar result holds in the Heisenberg group, by showing that every continuous –convex function belongs to the class of functions whose second order horizontal distributional derivatives are Radon measures. Together with a recent result by Ambrosio and Magnani, this proves the existence a.e. of second order horizontal derivatives...

∗Participant in Workshop in Linear Analysis and Probability, Texas A & M University, College Station, Texas, 2000. Research partially supported by the Edmund Landau Center for Research in Mathematical Analysis and related areas, sponsored by Minerva Foundation (Germany). The space K[0, 1] of differences of convex functions on the closed interval [0, 1] is investigated as a dual Banach space. It is proved that a continuous function f on [0, 1] belongs to K[0, 1] ...

A minimax inequality with applications to existence of equilibrium point and fixed point theorems

Xie Ding, Kok-Keong Tan (1992)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Ky Fan’s minimax inequality [8, Theorem 1] has become a versatile tool in nonlinear and convex analysis. In this paper, we shall first obtain a minimax inequality which generalizes those generalizations of Ky Fan’s minimax inequality due to Allen [1], Yen [18], Tan [16], Bae Kim Tan [3] and Fan himself [9]. Several equivalent forms are then formulated and one of them, the maximal element version, is used to obtain a fixed point theorem which in turn is applied to obtain an existence...
