The Maximum of Two Upper Semicontinuous Functions
lemmalem:max-semicontinuous-2026aAnalysis Topology
The pointwise maximum of two functions upper semicontinuous at a point is upper semicontinuous there, and dually the pointwise minimum of two lower semicontinuous functions is lower semicontinuous.

The Subsequence Criterion for Convergence in a Metric Space
lemmalem:subsequence-criterion-convergence-metric-2026aAnalysis Topology
A subsequence of a subsequence is a subsequence. If every subsequence of a sequence in a metric space has in turn a subsequence converging to a fixed point, then the whole sequence converges to that point.

Continuity Between Metric Spaces is Equivalent to Sequential Continuity
lemmalem:sequential-continuity-metric-2026aAnalysis Topology
A map between metric spaces is continuous at a point relative to a subset if and only if it carries every sequence in that subset converging to the point to a sequence converging to the image of the point.

Properties of the Lower Semicontinuous Envelope, by Duality
lemmalem:lsc-envelope-properties-2026aAnalysis Topology
The lower semicontinuous envelope is the negative of the upper semicontinuous envelope of the negated function; from this it is dominated by the function, is lower semicontinuous, is the greatest lower semicontinuous minorant, is a fixed point exactly for lower semicontinuous fun…

Properties of the Upper Semicontinuous Envelope
lemmalem:usc-envelope-properties-2026aAnalysis Topology
The upper semicontinuous envelope dominates the function, is upper semicontinuous, is the least upper semicontinuous majorant, agrees with the function exactly when the function is upper semicontinuous, is monotone in the function, and is approached along a sequence tending to th…

Upper and Lower Semicontinuous Envelopes of a Real-Valued Function
definitiondef:semicontinuous-envelopes-2026aAnalysis Topology
For a real-valued function on a subset of a metric space that is bounded above near each point, the upper semicontinuous envelope $u^{*}$ is defined pointwise as the infimum of the constants dominating $u$ on some closed ball; the lower envelope $u_{*}$ is defined dually.

A real-valued continuous function on a nonempty compact subset of a metric space admits a modulus of continuity that is nondecreasing and dominates the oscillation of the function at every scale.

For an upper semicontinuous $\Phi$ and a nonnegative lower semicontinuous penalty $\Psi$ on a compact set, the penalised maxima $M_\alpha$ decrease to $M=\inf_\alpha M_\alpha$ , the penalty $\alpha\Psi$ vanishes along maximisers, and every cluster point maximises $\Phi$ over the z…
