Abstract
We propose a Moreau–Yosida regularization for maximal monotone operators of type (D), in non-reflexive Banach spaces. It generalizes the classical Moreau–Yosida regularization as well as Brezis–Crandall–Pazy’s extension of this regularization to strictly convex (reflexive) Banach spaces with strictly convex duals. Our main results are obtained by making use of recent results by the authors on convex representations of maximal monotone operators in non-reflexive Banach spaces.
