Near Convexity and Generalized Differentiation (2302.08986v1)
Published 17 Feb 2023 in math.OC
Abstract: In this paper, we introduce the concept of nearly convex set-valued mappings and investigate fundamental properties of these mappings. Additionally, we establish a geometric approach for generalized differentiation of nearly convex set-valued mappings and nearly convex functions. Our contributions expand the current knowledge of nearly convex sets and functions, while providing several new results pertaining to nearly convex set-valued mappings.
