What does "a function is minorised" mean?

80 Views Asked by At

I'm reading a paper about Lasry-Lions regularisation. In Theorem 1 of the paper, considered function $f$ is assumed to be minorised.

What does it mean?

EDIT: Is it equivalent to "bounded below"?

It means that the range of $f$ has a lower bound. In other words, there is some $L\in\Bbb R$ such that$$(\forall x\in X):f(x)\geqslant L.$$
