Abstract

In this paper, we prove that if $X$ is an infinite-dimensional real Hilbert space and $J: X\rightarrow \mathbb{R} $ is a sequentially weakly lower semicontinuous ${C}^{1} $ functional whose Gâteaux derivative is non-expansive, then there exists a closed ball $B$ in $X$ such that $(\mathrm{id} + {J}^{\prime } )(B)$ intersects every convex and dense subset of $X$.
