On preimages of a class of generalized monotone operators
چکیده انگلیسی

In this paper we first provide a geometric interpretation of the Minty–Browder monotonicity which allows us to extend this concept to the so called hh-monotonicity, still formulated in an analytic way. A topological concept of monotonicity is also known in the literature: it requires the connectedness of all preimages of the operator involved. This fact is important since combined with the local injectivity, it ensures global injectivity. When a linear structure is present on the source space, one can ask for the preimages to even be convex. In an earlier paper, the authors have shown that Minty–Browder monotone operators defined on convex open sets do have convex preimages, obtaining as a by-product global injectivity theorems. In this paper we study the preimages of hh-monotone operators, by showing that they are not divisible by closed connected hypersurfaces, and investigate them from the dimensional point of view. As a consequence we deduce that hh-monotone local homeomorphisms are actually global homeomorphisms, as the proved properties of their preimages combined with local injectivity still produce global injectivity.
