On Far and Near Ends of Closed and Convex Sets
Journal of convex analysis, Tome 27 (2020) no. 2, pp. 407-421
We first introduce for a closed and convex set two classes of subsets: the near and far ends relative to a point, and give some full characterizations for these end sets by virtue of the face theory of closed and convex sets. We also provide some connections between closedness of the far (near) end and the relative continuity of the gauge (cogauge) for closed and convex sets. Moreover, motivated by these connections, we clarify Conjecture 6.1 of K.-W. Meng, V. Roshchina and X.-Q. Yang [On local coincidence of a convex set and its tangent cone, J. Optim. Theory Appl. 164 (2015) 123--137] in the sense that the gauge of a closed and convex set containing 0 is continuous relative to its domain if it is relatively continuous at 0, holds always in the two-dimensional case, but is not true in general by constructing a three-dimensional counterexample.
