Moreau's theorem is a fundamental result characterizing projections onto closed convex cones in Hilbert spaces.
Let be a closed convex cone in the Hilbert space and its polar. For an arbitrary closed convex set in , denote by the projection onto . For the following two statements are equivalent:
- , and
- and
Proof
Let be an arbitrary closed convex set in , and . Then, it is well known that if and only if for all . We will call this result the characterization of the projection.
- 12: For all we have
.
Then, by the characterization of the projection, it follows that . Similarly, for all we have
- 21: Let . By the characterization of the projection we have for all . In particular, if , then and if , then . Thus, . Denote . Then, . It remained to show that . First, we prove that . For this we have to show that , for
all . By using the characterization of the projection, we have
for all . Thus, . We also have
for all , because . By using again the characterization of the projection, it follows that .
