We propose two di erent notations for cones generated by a set and for convex cones generated by a set, usually denoted by a same notation. We make some remarks on the Bouligand tangent cone and on the Clarke tangent cone for star-shaped sets and for locally convex sets. We give some applications of these remarks to a di erentiable optimization problem with an abstract constraint.

Nonsmooth analysis has provided important new mathematical tools for the study of problems in optimization and other areas of analysis [1, 2, 6-12, 28]. The basic building blocks of this subject are local approximations to sets called tangent cones.Definition 1.1. Let E be a real, locally convex, Hausdorff topological vector space (abbreviated l.c.s.). A tangent cone (on E) is a mapping A:2E × E → 2E such that A(C, x) is a (possibly empty) cone for all nonempty C in 2E and x in E.In the sequel, we will say that a tangent cone has a certain property (e.g. “A is closed” or “A is convex“) if A(C, x) has that property for all non-empty sets C and all x in C. (If A(C, x) is empty, it will be counted as having the property trivially.)

As various types of tangent cones, generalized derivatives and subgradients prove to be a useful tool in nonsmooth optimization and nonsmooth analysis, we witness a considerable interest in analysis of their properties, relations and applications.Recently, Treiman [18] proved that the Clarke tangent cone at a point to a closed subset of a Banach space contains the limit inferior of the contingent cones to the set at neighbouring points. We provide a considerable strengthening of this result for reflexive spaces. Exploring the analogous inclusion in which the contingent cones are replaced by pseudocontingent cones we have observed that it does not hold any longer in a general Banach space, however it does in reflexive spaces. Among the several basic relations we have discovered is the following one: the Clarke tangent cone at a point to a closed subset of a reflexive Banach space is equal to the limit inferior of the weak (pseudo) contingent cones to the set at neighbouring points.

We study the locally convex cones which have finite dimension. We introduce the Euclidean convex quasiuniform structure on a finite dimensional cone. In special case of finite dimensional locally convex topological vector spaces, the symmetric topology induced by the Euclidean convex quasiuniform structure reduces to the known concept of Euclidean topology. We prove that the dual of a finite dimensional cone endowed with the Euclidean convex quasiuniform structure is identical with it?s algebraic dual.

Let C(n) be a complete intersection monomial curve in the 4-dimensional affine space. In this paper we study the complete intersection property of the monomial curve C(n + wv), where w > 0 is an integer and v ∈ ℕ4. In addition, we investigate the Cohen–Macaulayness of the tangent cone of C(n + wv).

Let $H$ be an $n$-generated numerical semigroup such that its tangent cone $\operatorname{gr}_\mathfrak{m} K[H]$ is defined by quadratic relations. We show that if $n<5$ then $\operatorname{gr}_\mathfrak{m} K[H]$ is Cohen-Macaulay, and for $n=5$ we explicitly describe the semigroups $H$ such that $\operatorname{gr}_\mathfrak{m} K[H]$ is not Cohen-Macaulay. As an application we show that if the field $K$ is algebraically closed and of characteristic different from two, and $n\leq 5$ then $\operatorname{gr}_\mathfrak{m} K[H]$ is Koszul if and only if (possibly after a change of coordinates) its defining ideal has a quadratic Gröbner basis.

Let S be a subset of Rd. A point x in 5 is a point of local convexity of S if and only if there is some neighborhood N of x such that, if y, z ∈ N ᑎ 5, then [y, z] ⊆ S. If S fails to be locally convex at some point q in S then q is called a point of local nonconvexity (lnc point) of S.

We study an operation, that we call lifting, creating nonisomorphic monomial curves from a single monomial curve. Our main result says that all but finitely many liftings of a monomial curve have Cohen–Macaulay tangent cones even if the tangent cone of the original curve is not Cohen–Macaulay. This implies that the Betti sequence of the tangent cone is eventually constant under this operation. Moreover, all liftings have Cohen–Macaulay tangent cones when the original monomial curve has a Cohen–Macaulay tangent cone. In this case, all the Betti sequences are just the Betti sequence of the original curve.
