 Solution

Absolute values are missing in the printed formula. For signed real blocks, the intended block mixed norm must beWithout them, at $q=1$ a block $(-1,1)$ has value zero although it is nonzero, and a negative scalar has negative value. For nonintegral $q$, a negative component may not even have a real power. The literal expression therefore is not a norm and does not define the claimed general convex problem. Even integer exponents do not fix all other $q$ in the stated range.

With the corrected norm, let $q^{\prime }$ be the Holder conjugate exponent: $q^{\prime }=q/(q-1)$ for $q>1$ and $q^{\prime }=\infty$ for $q=1$. Blockwise Holder inequality, with equality from a norming block, givesThe duality of block mixed norms identifies the closed compact convex set and the projection residual from the Moreau decompositionFor $q=2$, the dual blocks are Euclidean balls; for $q=1$, they are cubes given by componentwise bounds $|p_{i,j}^r|\le \lambda$. No injectivity or surjectivity of $A$ is required: compactness of the block product makes its linear image compact, and the strictly convex fidelity still gives a unique primal minimizer. For general $q^{\prime }$, the Euclidean projection onto a dual block ball is not generally obtained by radial scaling, so the special clipping formula from the isotropic case should not be reused without further analysis.
