Abstract

We establish a second order smooth variational principle valid for functions defined on (possibly infinite-dimensional) Riemannian manifolds which are uniformly locally convex and have a strictly positive injectivity radius and bounded sectional curvature.
Keywords: smooth variational principle, Riemannian manifold smooth variational principle, Riemannian manifold
