Abstract. In this paper, we explore some properties
of the Moreau envelope function $e_λ f(x)$ of f and the associated proximal mapping $P_λ f(x)$ with
respect to the Bregman distance induced by a convex function in Banach
spaces. Precisely, we study the continuity, locally Lipschitz property and
differentiability of the Moreau envelope function and the upper
semicontinuity and single-valuedness of the proximal mapping in Banach
spaces.
