The Joly topology and the Mosco-Beer topology revisited

Abstract

Some extensions to the non reflexive case of continuity results for the Legendre-Fenchel transform are presented following an approach due to J.-L. Joly. We compare the topology introduced by J.-L. Joly and the Mosco-Beer topology introduced by G. Beer. In particular, in the case of the space of closed proper convex functions defined on the dual of a normed vector space they coincide.
