Gateaux Differentiability of Convex Functions and Weak Dentable Set in Nonseparable Banach Spaces

In this paper, we prove that if C⁎⁎ is a ε-separable bounded subset of X⁎⁎, then every convex function g≤σC is Ga^teaux differentiable at a dense Gδ subset G of X⁎ if and only if every subset of ∂σC(0)∩X is weakly dentable. Moreover, we also prove that if C is a closed convex set, then dσC(x⁎)=x if...

Description
Summary:In this paper, we prove that if C⁎⁎ is a ε-separable bounded subset of X⁎⁎, then every convex function g≤σC is Ga^teaux differentiable at a dense Gδ subset G of X⁎ if and only if every subset of ∂σC(0)∩X is weakly dentable. Moreover, we also prove that if C is a closed convex set, then dσC(x⁎)=x if and only if x is a weakly exposed point of C exposed by x⁎. Finally, we prove that X is an Asplund space if and only if, for every bounded closed convex set C⁎ of X⁎, there exists a dense subset G of X⁎⁎ such that σC⁎ is Ga^teaux differentiable on G and dσC⁎(G)⊂C⁎. We also prove that X is an Asplund space if and only if, for every w⁎-lower semicontinuous convex function f, there exists a dense subset G of X⁎⁎ such that f is Ga^teaux differentiable on G and df(G)⊂X⁎.
