A Unified View of Polarity for Functions

Abstract

We propose a unified view of the polarity of functions, that encompasses all specific definitions, generalizes several well-known properties and provides new results. We show that bipolar sets and bipolar functions are isomorphic lattices. Also, we explore three possible notions of polar subdifferential associated with a nonnegative function, and we make the connection with the notion of alignement of vectors.
