On nonsmooth global implicit function theorems for locally Lipschitz functions from Banach spaces to Euclidean spaces.

Abstract

In this paper, we establish a generalization of the Galewski-Rădulescu nonsmooth global implicit function theorem to locally Lipschitz functions defined from infinite dimensional Banach spaces into Euclidean spaces. Moreover, we derive, under suitable conditions, a series of results on the existence, uniqueness, and possible continuity of global implicit functions that parametrize the set of zeros of locally Lipschitz functions. Our methods rely on a nonsmooth critical point theory based on a generalization of the Ekeland variational principle.
