Abstract

We study the problem of extending continuous quasiconvex real-valued functions from a subspace of a real normed linear space. Our results are essentially finite-dimensional and are based on a technical lemma which permits to “extend” a nested family of open convex subsets of a given subspace to a nested family of open convex sets in the whole space, in such a way that certain topological conditions are satisfied.
