卡诺群上的c水平凸性

c horizontal convexity on Carnot groups

Andrea Calogero, Rita Pini

摘要:

给定一个定义在一般卡诺群$\G$及其李代数第一层$V_1$的笛卡儿积上的实值函数$c$,我们引入了$\G$上的$c$水平凸($c$ H-凸)函数的概念,作为一个合适的仿射函数族的上确界,这个仿射函数族是点态定义的,并且严格依赖于群的水平结构.这种抽象的方法提供$c$ H-凸函数,在适当的假设下,$c,$的特点是非空的$c$ H-次微分,最重要的是,局部H-凸,从而允许水平导数几乎处处。值得注意的是,这样的功能可以恢复通过Rockafellar技术,从一个合适的概念$c$ H-循环单调的地图。在$c(g,v)=< ξ_1(g),v >,$的特殊情况下,我们得到了著名的弱H-凸函数,它们是由Danielli,Garofalo和Nhieu引入的.最后,我们提出了一个可能的应用程序,以最佳的质量运输。

英文摘要:

Given a real-valued function $c$ defined on the cartesian product of a generic Carnot group $\G$ and the first layer $V_1$ of its Lie algebra, we introduce a notion of $c$ horizontal convex ($c$ H-convex) function on $\G$ as the supremum of a suitable family of affine functions; this family is defined pointwisely, and depends strictly on the horizontal structure of the group. This abstract approach provides $c$ H-convex functions that, under appropriate assumptions on $c,$ are characterized by the nonemptiness of the $c$ H-subdifferential and, above all, are locally H-semiconvex, thereby admitting horizontal derivatives almost everywhere. It is noteworthy that such functions can be recovered via a Rockafellar technique, starting from a suitable notion of $c$ H-cyclic monotonicity for maps. In the particular case where $c(g,v)=< ξ_1(g),v >,$ we obtain the well-known weakly H-convex functions introduced by Danielli, Garofalo and Nhieu. Finally, we suggest a possible application to optimal mass transportation.
