| contents | A fundamental open question asking whether all real-valued strongly quasiconvex functions defined on $\mathbb R^n$ are necessarily continuous, akin to their convex counterparts, is answered in detail in this paper. Among other things, we show that such functions can have infinitely many points of discontinuity. The failure of lower semicontinuity together with the lack of upper semicontinuity at infinitely many points of certain real-valued strongly quasiconvex functions are also shown. |
