We show weak lower semi-continuity of functionals assuming the new notion of a ``convexly constrained''  $\mathcal A$-quasiconvex integrand. We assume $\mathcal A$-quasiconvexity only for functions defined on a set $K$ which is convex. Assuming this and sufficient integrability of the sequence we show that the functional is still (sequentially) weakly lower semi-continuous along weakly convergent ``convexly constrained''  $\mathcal A$-free sequences. In a motivating example, the integrand is $-\det^{\frac{1}{d-1}}$ and the convex constraint is positive semi-definiteness of a matrix field.

We prove that sup(f-h)(E) = sup(h*-f*)(E*), where f is a proper lower semi-continuous convex functional on a real locally convex space E, h: E → = [-∞, +∞] is an arbitrary-functional and, f*, h* are their convex conjugates respectively. When h = δG, the indicator of a bounded subset G of E, this yields a formula for sup f(G).

Abstract In this work, we reformulate and investigate the well-known pantograph differential equation by applying newly-defined conformable operators in both Caputo and Riemann–Liouville settings simultaneously for the first time. In fact, we derive the required existence criteria of solutions corresponding to the inclusion version of the three-point Caputo conformable pantograph BVP subject to Riemann–Liouville conformable integral conditions. To achieve this aim, we establish our main results in some cases including the lower semi-continuous, the upper semi-continuous and the Lipschitz set-valued maps. Eventually, the last part of the present research is devoted to proposing two numerical simulative examples to confirm the consistency of our findings.

In this paper, we extend an inequality that compares the pull-back of the total dimension divisor of an étale sheaf and the total dimension divisor of the pull-back of the sheaf due to Saito. Using this formula, we generalize Deligne and Laumon’s lower semi-continuity property for Swan conductors of étale sheaves on relative curves to higher relative dimensions in a geometric situation.

In this paper, we introduce the operator approach for orthogonality in linear spaces. In particular, we represent the concept of orthogonal vectors using an operator associated with them, in normed spaces. Moreover, we investigate some of continuity properties of this kind of orthogonality. More precisely, we show that the set valued function F(x; y) = {μ : μ ∈ C, p(x − μy, y) = 1} is upper and lower semi continuous, where p(x, y) = sup{pz1,...,zn−2 (x, y) : z1, . . . , zn−2 ∈ X} and pz1,...,zn−2 (x, y) = kPx,z1,...,zn−2,yk−1 where Px,z1,...,zn−2,y denotes the projection parallel to y from X to the subspace generated by {x, z1, . . . , zn−2}. This can be considered as an alternative definition for numerical range in linear spaces.
