A version of Zhong's coercivity result for a general class of nonsmooth functionals

A version of Zhong's coercivity result (1997) is established for nonsmooth functionals expressed as a sum Φ+Ψ, where Φ is locally Lipschitz and Ψ is convex, lower semicontinuous, and proper. This is obtained as a consequence of a general result describing the asymptotic behavior of the function...
