Abstract

The chain rule for the subdifferential of a real convex functional composite with an affine operator and a real convex functional is well known (Ekeland-Temam, 1974). Various extensions of this classical case involving operators taking values in an ordered vector space have been considered by many people, for example Lescarret (1968), Levin (1970), Ioffe-Levin (1972), Valadier (1972), Zowe (1974), Penot (1976), Kutateladze (1977), Hiriart-Urruty (1980), Thera (1981) in a convex framework and Thibault (1980) in a non-convex situation.
