Abstract

In this new edition of LNM 1693 the essential idea is to reduce questions on monotone multifunctions to questions on convex functions. However, rather than using a “big convexification” of the graph of the multifunction and the “minimax technique”for proving the existence of linear functionals satisfying certain conditions, the Fitzpatrick function is used. The journey begins with a generalization of the Hahn-Banach theorem uniting classical functional analysis, minimax theory, Lagrange multiplier theory and convex analysis and culminates in a survey of current results on monotone multifunctions on a Banach space. The first two chapters are aimed at students interested in the development of the basic theorems of functional analysis, which leads painlessly to the theory of minimax theorems, convex Lagrange multiplier theory and convex analysis. The remaining five chapters are useful for those who wish to learn about the current research on monotone multifunctions on (possibly non reflexive) Banach space.

Abstract

This book presents a largely self-contained account of the main results of convex analysis, monotone operator theory, and the theory of nonexpansive operators in the context of Hilbert spaces. Unlike existing literature, the novelty of this book, and indeed its central theme, is the tight interplay among the key notions of convexity, monotonicity, and nonexpansiveness. The presentation is accessible to a broad audience and attempts to reach out in particular to the applied sciences and engineering communities, where these tools have become indispensable. Graduate students and researchers in pure and applied mathematics will benefit from this book. It is also directed to researchers in engineering, decision sciences, economics, and inverse problems, and can serve as a reference book. Author Information: Heinz H. Bauschke is a Professor of Mathematics at the University of British Columbia, Okanagan campus (UBCO) and currently a Canada Research Chair in Convex Analysis and Optimization. He was born in Frankfurt where he received his "Diplom-Mathematiker (mit Auszeichnung)" from Goethe Universität in 1990. He defended his Ph.D. thesis in Mathematics at Simon Fraser University in 1996 and was awarded the Governor General's Gold Medal for his graduate work. After a NSERC Postdoctoral Fellowship spent at the University of Waterloo, at the Pennsylvania State University, and at the University of California at Santa Barbara, Dr. Bauschke became College Professor at Okanagan University College in 1998. He joined the University of Guelph in 2001, and he returned to Kelowna in 2005, when Okanagan University College turned into UBCO. In 2009, he became UBCO's first "Researcher of the Year". Patrick L. Combettes received the Brevet d'Études du Premier Cycle from Académie de Versailles in 1977 and the Ph.D. degree from North Carolina State University in 1989. In 1990, he joined the City College and the Graduate Center of the City University of New York where he became a Full Professor in 1999. Since 1999, he has been with the Faculty of Mathematics of Université Pierre et Marie Curie -- Paris 6, laboratoire Jacques-Louis Lions, where he is presently a Professeur de Classe Exceptionnelle. He was elected Fellow of the IEEE in 2005.

Abstract

Devoted to a theory of gradient flows in spaces which are not necessarily endowed with a natural linear or differentiable structure, this book focuses on gradient flows in metric spaces. It covers gradient flows in the space of probability measures on a separable Hilbert space, endowed with the Kantorovich-Rubinstein-Wasserstein distance.
