Positive and Z-operators on closed convex cones
نویسنده
چکیده
Let K be a closed convex cone with dual K∗ in a finite-dimensional real Hilbert space V . A positive operator on K is a linear operator L on V such that L (K) ⊆ K. Positive operators generalize the nonnegative matrices and are essential to the Perron-Frobenius theory. We say that L is a Z-operator on K if 〈L (x), s〉 ≤ 0 for all (x, s) ∈ K ×K such that 〈x, s〉 = 0. The Z-operators are generalizations of Z-matrices (whose off-diagonal elements are nonpositive) and they arise in dynamical systems, economics, game theory, and elsewhere. We connect the positive and Z-operators. This extends the work of Schneider, Vidyasagar, and Tam on proper cones, and reveals some interesting similarities between the two families.

Bishop-Phelps type Theorem for Normed Cones
In this paper the notion of support points of convex sets in normed cones is introduced and it is shown that in a continuous normed cone, under the appropriate conditions, the set of support points of a bounded Scott-closed convex set is nonempty. We also present a Bishop-Phelps type Theorem for normed cones.
متن کاملRegularities and their relations to error bounds
In this paper, we mainly study various notions of regularity for a finite collection {C1, · · · , Cm} of closed convex subsets of a Banach space X and their relations with other fundamental concepts. We show that a proper lower semicontinuous function f on X has a Lipschitz error bound (resp., Υ-error bound) if and only if the pair {epi(f), X×{0}} of sets in the product space X × R is linearly ...
متن کاملLyapunov rank of polyhedral positive operators
IfK is a closed convex cone and if L is a linear operator having L (K) ⊆ K, then L is a positive operator on K and L preserves inequality with respect to K. The set of all positive operators on K is denoted by π (K). If K∗ is the dual of K, then its complementarity set is C (K) := {(x, s) ∈ K ×K | 〈x, s〉 = 0} . Such a set arises as optimality conditions in convex optimization, and a linear oper...
متن کاملOn Polar Cones and Differentiability in Reflexive Banach Spaces
Let $X$ be a Banach space, $Csubset X$ be a closed convex set included in a well-based cone $K$, and also let $sigma_C$ be the support function which is defined on $C$. In this note, we first study the existence of a bounded base for the cone $K$, then using the obtained results, we find some geometric conditions for the set $C$, so that ${mathop{rm int}}(mathrm{dom} sigma_C) neqem...
