Some results on the \(\mathcal U\)-Langrangian of a class of maximum eigenvalue functions (Q2825528)

The \(\mathcal UV\)-theory is the sum of two orthogonal subspaces \(\mathcal U\) and \(\mathcal V\) in such a way that all of nonsmoothness is concentrated in \(\mathcal V\) such that the first-order approximation of the maximum eigenvalue function is linear in \(\mathcal U\). This paper gives three kinds of \(\mathcal UV\)-space decomposition of a class of maximum eigenvalue functions and the proof about the equivalency of the three pair subspaces. The first-order and second-order approximations for a class of maximum eigenvalue functions are presented. The necessary and sufficient condition on the continuity of a set of minimizers of the \(\mathcal U\)-Langrange function is obtained.
