Spring School on Variational Analysis VI

Sunday, 19th Apr 2015

Following a longstanding tradition, the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics of Charles University in Prague and the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic will organize the Spring School on Variational Analysis VI. The School will be held in Paseky nad Jizerou, in a chalet in the Krkonose Mountains, April 19 - 25, 2015. The program will consist of series of lectures on Variational Analysis and its Applications.

The lectures will be given by

• Jonathan M. Borwein (The University of Newcastle, Australia)
Theory and Applications of Convex and Non-convex Feasibility Problems
• Marian Fabian (Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic)
Separable Reductions and Rich Families in Theory of Frechet Subdifferentials
• Alexander Ioffe (Technion, Haifa, Israel)
Variational Analysis and Optimization Theory
• David Russel Luke (Georg-August-Universitaet Goettingen, Germany)
Variational Methods in Numerical Analysis

An additive subfamily of enlargements of a maximally monotone Operator

We introduce a subfamily of additive enlargements of a maximally monotone operator $T$. Our definition is inspired by the seminal work of Fitzpatrick presented in 1988. These enlargements are a subfamily of the family of enlargements introduced by Svaiter in 2000. For the case $T = \partial f$, we prove that some members of the subfamily are smaller than the $\varepsilon$-subdifferential enlargement. For this choice of $T$, we can construct a specific enlargement which coincides with the$\varepsilon$-subdifferential. Since these enlargements are all additive, they can be seen as structurally closer to the $\varepsilon$-subdifferential enlargement.

Joint work with Juan Enrique Martínez-Legaz (Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona), Mahboubeh Rezaei (University of Isfahan, Iran), and Michel Théra (University of Limoges).
