• qrgi functions
• transfer weakly lower continuous
• nearly quasi-convex functions
• noncoercive functions
• reflexive Banach spaces

The main goal of this paper is to obtain a generalization of the Weierstrass theorem for transfer weakly lower continuous functions on noncompact topological spaces. To achieve this goal, the notion of a quasi-regular-global-inf (qrgi) function on a topological space is introduced, some equivalent statements are given, and a Weierstrass-type theorem for such functions is proved. Moreover, the well-posedness of the minimization problem for regular-global-inf (rgi) and qrgi functions is studied. Furthermore, in the setting of reflexive Banach spaces the existence of global minimum points of noncoercive qrgi and transfer weakly lower continuous functions are investigated. We also introduce the concept of nearly quasi-convexity of a function, as a generalization of the quasi-convexity notion, and present a result on the minimization problem of these functions.
