On Strong Quasiconvexity of Functions in Infinite Dimensions
Abstract
In this paper, we explore the concept of σ-quasiconvexity for functions defined on normed vector spaces. This notion encompasses two important and well-established concepts: quasiconvexity and strong quasiconvexity. We start by analyzing certain operations on functions that preserve σ-quasiconvexity. Next, we present new results concerning the strong quasiconvexity of norm and Minkowski functions in infinite dimensions. Furthermore, we extend a recent result by F. Lara [16] on the supercoercive properties of strongly quasiconvex functions, with applications to the existence and uniqueness of minima, from finite dimensions to infinite dimensions. Finally, we address counterexamples related to strong quasiconvexity.
