For a C2C^2 function whose Hessian is pinched between epsilon and L times the identity, the gradient map is a bi-Lipschitz bijection of Euclidean space whose inverse has C1C^1 components, with Jacobian matrix the inverse of the Hessian.

Statement

In the setting of Differential Calculus and Convexity on Euclidean Open Sets: Standing Notation, let dd be a natural number with 1d1\le d, read in R\mathbb{R} as in The Real Numbers: Standing Notation and Background §numbers where a real number is required, and let Φ:RdR\Phi:\mathbb{R}^{d}\to\mathbb{R} be of class C2C^{2} on Rd\mathbb{R}^{d}, which is open by claim 1 of Euclidean Space is Open in Itself, and CkC^k Maps are Continuous, with gradient DΦ(x)D\Phi(x) and Hessian matrix D2Φ(x)S(d)D^{2}\Phi(x)\in\mathcal{S}(d). Let Φ:RdRd\nabla\Phi:\mathbb{R}^{d}\to\mathbb{R}^{d} denote the gradient map xDΦ(x)x\mapsto D\Phi(x), whose components iΦ\partial_{i}\Phi are of class C1C^{1} on Rd\mathbb{R}^{d} by clause 2 of C^k Maps on a Euclidean Open Set. For a map G:RdRdG:\mathbb{R}^{d}\to\mathbb{R}^{d} whose components are of class C1C^{1} on Rd\mathbb{R}^{d}, DG(y)DG(y) denotes its Jacobian matrix at yy, with entry jGi(y)\partial_{j}G_{i}(y) in row ii and column jj. Positive definiteness and the inverse matrix are those of those definitions. Let ε\varepsilon and LL be positive real numbers with

εIdD2Φ(x)LIdfor every xRd.\varepsilon I_{d}\preceq D^{2}\Phi(x)\preceq L\,I_{d}\qquad\text{for every }x\in\mathbb{R}^{d}.

1. (Two-sided Lipschitz bounds) For all x,yRdx,y\in\mathbb{R}^{d},

εxyΦ(x)Φ(y)dLxy.\varepsilon\lVert x-y\rVert\le\lVert\nabla\Phi(x)-\nabla\Phi(y)\rVert\le d\,L\,\lVert x-y\rVert .

2. (Bijection) Φ\nabla\Phi is a bijection of Rd\mathbb{R}^{d} onto Rd\mathbb{R}^{d}.

3. (The inverse) For every xRdx\in\mathbb{R}^{d} the matrix D2Φ(x)D^{2}\Phi(x) is positive definite and D(Φ)(x)=D2Φ(x)D(\nabla\Phi)(x)=D^{2}\Phi(x). The inverse map G=(Φ)1G=(\nabla\Phi)^{-1} has components of class C1C^{1} on Rd\mathbb{R}^{d}, and for every xRdx\in\mathbb{R}^{d} the matrix DG(Φ(x))DG(\nabla\Phi(x)) is the inverse matrix of D2Φ(x)D^{2}\Phi(x).
