Vanishing Viscosity Solutions of Nonlinear Hyperbolic Systems

TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered the Cauchy problem for a strictly hyperbolic, $n\times n$ system in one space dimension, and showed that the solutions of the viscous approximations are defined globally in time and satisfy uniform BV estimates, independent of the initial data.

Complete characterization of openness, metric regularity, and Lipschitzian properties of multifunctions

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider some basic properties of nonsmooth and set-valued mappings (multifunctions) connected with open and inverse mapping principles, distance estimates to the level sets (metric regularity), and a locally Lipschitzian behavior.

Handbook of mathematical methods in imaging

TL;DR: In this article, the Mumford and Shah Model and its applications in total variation image restoration are discussed. But the authors focus on the reconstruction of 3D information, rather than the analysis of the image.

Convex Functions: Constructions, Characterizations and Counterexamples

TL;DR: Convexity is a natural and powerful property of functions that plays a significant role in many areas of mathematics, both pure and applied as mentioned in this paper, and is an important tool in optimization, mathematical programming and game theory.
