An Implicit-Function Theorem for a Class of Nonsmooth Functions

From MaRDI portal





An implicit function theorem is given for functions \(f: E\times F\to G\) between Banach spaces, which instead of having a second partial derivative are assumed to be approximable in a certain sense by functions having a Lipschitz inverse. The conclusion is that locally there exist unique solutions \(y(x)\) of \(f(x,y)=0\) and \(x\mapsto y(x)\) is Lipschitzian. This theorem is then applied to the following problem: Given are a non- empty open subset \(U\) of a closed convex set \(C\) of a Hilbert space, an open subset \(V\) of a normed space, and a function \(f\) on \(U\times V\) with values in the Hilbert space. For \(y\in V\) one wants to find an \(x\in U\) such that \(\langle c-x,f(x,y)\rangle\geq 0\) for all \(c\in C\).
