In mathematics, particularly in
functional analysis
and
convex analysis
, a
convex series
is a
series
of the form
where
are all elements of a
topological vector space
, and all
are non-negative
real numbers
that sum to
(that is, such that
).
Types of Convex series
Suppose that
is a subset of
and
is a convex series in
-
If all
belong to
then the convex series
is called a convex series with elements of
.
-
If the set
is a (von Neumann) bounded set then the series called a b-convex series .
-
The convex series
is said to be a convergent series if the sequence of partial sums
converges in
to some element of
which is called the sum of the convex series .
-
The convex series is called
Cauchy
if
is a Cauchy series , which by definition means that the sequence of partial sums
is a Cauchy sequence .
Types of subsets
Convex series allow for the definition of special types of subsets that are well-behaved and useful with very good stability properties.
If
is a subset of a
topological vector space
then
is said to be a:
-
cs-closed set
if any convergent convex series with elements of
has its (each) sum in
-
In this definition,
is not required to be Hausdorff, in which case the sum may not be unique. In any such case we require that every sum belong to
-
In this definition,
-
lower cs-closed set
or a
lcs-closed set
if there exists a
Fréchet space
such that
is equal to the projection onto
(via the canonical projection) of some cs-closed subset
of
Every cs-closed set is lower cs-closed and every lower cs-closed set is lower ideally convex and convex (the converses are not true in general).
-
ideally convex set
if any convergent b-series with elements of
has its sum in
-
lower ideally convex set
or a
li-convex set
if there exists a
Fréchet space
such that
is equal to the projection onto
(via the canonical projection) of some ideally convex subset
of
Every ideally convex set is lower ideally convex. Every lower ideally convex set is convex but the converse is in general not true.
-
cs-complete set
if any Cauchy convex series with elements of
is convergent and its sum is in
-
bcs-complete set
if any Cauchy b-convex series with elements of
is convergent and its sum is in
The empty set is convex, ideally convex, bcs-complete, cs-complete, and cs-closed.
Conditions (Hx) and (Hwx)
If
and
are topological vector spaces,
is a subset of
and
then
is said to satisfy:
[1]
-
Condition (H
x
)
: Whenever
is a convex series with elements of
such that
is convergent in
with sum
and
is Cauchy, then
is convergent in
and its sum
is such that

Condition (Hw
x
)
: Whenever
is a b-convex series with elements of
such that
is convergent in
with sum
and
is Cauchy, then
is convergent in
and its sum
is such that
-
If X is locally convex then the statement "and
is Cauchy" may be removed from the definition of condition (Hw x ).
-
If X is locally convex then the statement "and
Multifunctions
The following notation and notions are used, where
and
are
multifunctions
and

topological vector space

The
graph of a multifunction
of

The mulifunction
is convex if and only if for all
and all

The mulifunction

The
inverse of a multifunction
is the multifunction
defined by
For any subset

The
domain of a multifunction
is

The
image of a multifunction

For any subset
