On sets of non-differentiability of Lipschitz and convex functions

Luděk Zajíček (2007)

Mathematica Bohemica

We observe that each set from the system 𝒜 ˜ (or even 𝒞 ˜ ) is Γ -null; consequently, the version of Rademacher’s theorem (on Gâteaux differentiability of Lipschitz functions on separable Banach spaces) proved by D. Preiss and the author is stronger than that proved by D. Preiss and J. Lindenstrauss. Further, we show that the set of non-differentiability points of a convex function on n is σ -strongly lower porous. A discussion concerning sets of Fréchet non-differentiability points of continuous convex...

On some new characterizations of weakly compact sets in Banach spaces

Lixin Cheng, Qingjin Cheng, Zhenghua Luo (2010)

Studia Mathematica

We show several characterizations of weakly compact sets in Banach spaces. Given a bounded closed convex set C of a Banach space X, the following statements are equivalent: (i) C is weakly compact; (ii) C can be affinely uniformly embedded into a reflexive Banach space; (iii) there exists an equivalent norm on X which has the w2R-property on C; (iv) there is a continuous and w*-lower semicontinuous seminorm p on the dual X* with p s u p C such that p² is everywhere Fréchet differentiable in X*; and as a...

On the range of the derivative of a real-valued function with bounded support

T. Gaspari (2002)

Studia Mathematica

We study the set f’(X) = f’(x): x ∈ X when f:X → ℝ is a differentiable bump. We first prove that for any C²-smooth bump f: ℝ² → ℝ the range of the derivative of f must be the closure of its interior. Next we show that if X is an infinite-dimensional separable Banach space with a C p -smooth bump b:X → ℝ such that | | b ( p ) | | is finite, then any connected open subset of X* containing 0 is the range of the derivative of a C p -smooth bump. We also study the finite-dimensional case which is quite different. Finally,...
