On the variational \(S\)-compactness of conditional minimization problems (Q2739947)

This paper deals with a family of conditional minimization problems NEWLINE\[NEWLINE\left\{\left\langle\inf\limits_{x\in X_{\alpha}}F^{\alpha}(x)\right\rangle, \alpha\in A\right\},NEWLINE\]NEWLINE where \(A\) is a partially ordered set directed according to increase; \(\{X_{\alpha}\}_{\alpha\in A}\) is an arbitrary family of subsets from the Hausdorff space \((X,\tau)\); \(\{F^{\alpha}:X_{\alpha}\to \bar R \}_{\alpha\in A}\) is some directedness of functions. The author obtains the sufficient conditions under which any directedness of the considered minimization problem is compact with respect to variational \(S\)-convergence. The compactness property in the case of a normed space is also studied in terms of the weak and \(*\)-weak topology on \(X\).
