Abstract
Using a natural representation of a -concave function on as a convex set in we derive a simple formula for the integral of its -polar. This leads to convexity properties of the integral of the -polar function with respect to the center of polarity. In particular, we prove that that the reciprocal of the integral of the polar function of a log-concave function is log-concave as a function of the center of polarity. Also, we define the Santal\'o regions for -concave and log-concave functions and generalize the Santal\'o inequality for them in the case the origin is not the Santal\'o point.
