Abstract. A real valued function g(x, t) on R n ×R is called Lorentz invariant if g(x, t) = g(U x, t) for all n×n orthogonal matrices U and all (x, t) in the domain of g. In other words, g is invariant under the linear orthogonal transformations preserving the Lorentz cone:It is easy to see that every Lorentz invariant function can be decomposed as g = f • β, where f : R 2 → R is a symmetric function and β is the root map of the hyperbolic polynomial p(x, t) = t 2 −x 2 1 −· · ·−x 2 n . We investigate variety of important variational and non-smooth properties of g and characterize them in terms of the symmetric function f .

Abstract. We consider a material with memory whose constitutive law is formulated in terms of internal state variables using convex potentials for the free energy and the dissipation. Given the stress at a material point depending on time, existence of a strain and a set of inner variables satisfying the constitutive law is proved. We require strong coercivity assumptions on the potentials, but none of the potentials need be quadratic.As a technical tool we generalize the notion of an Orlicz space to a cone "normed" by a convex functional which is not necessarily balanced. Duality and reflexivity in such cones are investigated.

Abstract. Given a C 1,1 -function f : U → R (where U ⊂ R n open) we deal with the question of whether or not at a given point x 0 ∈ U there exists a local minorant ϕ of f of class C 2 that satisfies ϕ(. This question is motivated by the second-order viscosity theory of the PDE, since for nonsmooth functions, an analogous result between subgradients and first-order viscosity subjets is known to hold in every separable Asplund space. In this work we show that the aforementioned second-order result holds true whenever Hf (x 0 ) has a minimum with respect to the semidefinite cone (thus in particular, in one dimension), but it fails in two dimensions even for piecewise polynomial functions. We extend this result by introducing a new notion of directional minimum of Hf (x 0 ).
