چکیده

A sequence (Mk) of closed subsets of Rn converges normally to M ⊂ Rn if (sc) M = lim supMk = lim inf Mk in the sense of Painlevé–Kuratowski and (nc) lim sup G(NMk ) ⊂ G(NM ), where G(NM ) (resp., G(NMk )) denotes the graph of NM (resp., NMk ), Clarke’s normal cone to M (resp., Mk). This paper studies the normal convergence of subsets of Rn and mainly shows two results. The first result states that every closed epi-Lipschitzian subset M of Rn, with a compact boundary, can be approximated by a sequence of smooth sets (Mk), which converges normally to M and such that the sets Mk and M are lipeomorphic for every k (i.e., the homeomorphism between M and Mk and its inverse are both Lipschitzian). The second result shows that, if a sequence (Mk) of closed subsets of Rn converges normally to an epi-Lipschitzian set M , and if we additionally assume that the boundary of Mk remains in a fixed compact set, then, for k large enough, the sets Mk and M are lipeomorphic. In Cornet and Czarnecki [Cahier Eco-Maths 95-55, 1995], direct applications of these results are given to the study (existence, stability, etc.) of the generalized equation 0 ∈ f(x∗) + NM (x∗) when M is a compact epi-Lipschitzian subset of Rn and f : M → Rn is a continuous map (or more generally a correspondence).

Epi-Lipschitzian reachable sets of differential inclusions

The reachable sets of a differential inclusion have nonsmooth topological boundaries in general. The main result of this paper is that under the well–known assumptions of Filippov’s existence theorem (about solutions of differential inclusions), every epi-Lipschitzian initial compact set K ⊂ RN preserves this regularity for a short time, i.e. θF (t, K) is also epi-Lipschitzian for all small t >...

Compactly Epi-lipschitzian Convex Sets and Functions in Normed Spaces

The concept of compactly epi-Lipschitzian (CEL) sets in locally convex topological spaces was introduced by Borwein and Strojwas [6]. It is an extension of Rockafellar’s concept of epi-Lipschitzian sets [36]. An advantage of the CEL property is that it always holds in finite dimensional spaces and, in contrast to its epi-Lipschitzian predecessor, makes it possible to recapture much of the detai...

Epi-Cesaro Convergence

Since the turn of the century there have been several notions of convergence for subsets of metric spaces appear in the literature. Appearing in as a subset of these notions is the concepts of epi-convergence. In this paper we peresent definitions of epi-Cesaro convergence for sequences of lower semicontinuous functions from $X$ to $[-infty,infty]$ and Kuratowski Cesaro convergence of sequence...

Various Lipschitz-like Properties for Functions and Sets I: Directional Derivative and Tangential Characterizations

In this work we introduce for extended real valued functions, defined on a Banach space X, the concept of K directionally Lipschitzian behavior, where K is a bounded subset of X. For different types of sets K (e.g., zero, singleton, or compact), the K directionally Lipschitzian behavior recovers well-known concepts in variational analysis (locally Lipschitzian, directionally Lipschitzian, or co...
