Strongly convex set-valued maps

摘要

We introduce the notion of strongly t-convex set-valued maps and present some properties of it. In particular, a Bernstein-Doetsch and Sierpiriski-type theorems for strongly midconvex set-valued maps, as well as a Kuhn-type result are obtained. A representation of strongly t-convex set-valued maps in inner product spaces and a characterization of inner product spaces involving this representation is given. Finally, a connection between strongly convex set-valued maps and strongly convex sets is presented.
