It is shown that, given a point $x\in\mathbbm{R}^d$, $d\ge 2$, and open sets $U_1,...,U_k$ containing $x$, any convex combination of the harmonic measures for $x$ with respect to $U_n$, $1\le n\le k$, is the limit of a sequence of harmonic…
We present a new, easy, and elementary proof of Jensen's Theorem on the uniqueness of infinity harmonic functions. The idea is to pass to a finite difference equation by taking maximums and minimums over small balls.
We study a family of inequalities on pairs of measure spaces involving functions defined on product domains. Our main result establishes a Jensen-type inequality under a general product-measure framework, extending classical inequalities…
Classically, Jensen's Inequality asserts that if $X$ is a compact convex set, and $f:K\to \mathbb{R}$ is a convex function, then for any probability measure $\mu$ on $K$, that $f(\text{bar}(\mu))\le \int f\;d\mu$, where $\text{bar}(\mu)$ is…
Convex analysis is fundamental to proving inequalities that have a wide variety of applications in economics and mathematics. In this paper we provide Jensen-type inequalities for functions that are, intuitively, "very" convex. These…
We extend certain classical theorems in pluripotential theory to a class of functions defined on the support of a $(1,1)$-closed positive current $T$, analogous to plurisubharmonic functions, called $T$-plurisubharmonic functions. These…
In this paper we have considered a difference of Jensen's inequality for convex functions and proved some of its properties. In particular, we have obtained results for Csisz\'{a}r \cite{csi1} $f-$divergence. A result is established that…
Our main results are certain developments of the classical Poisson--Jensen formula for subharmonic functions. The basis of the classical Poisson--Jensen formula is the natural duality between harmonic measures and Green's functions. Our…
We provide conditions which guarantee that ergodic measures are dense in the simplex of invariant probability measures of a dynamical system given by a continuous map acting on a Polish space. Using them we study generic properties of…
It is well-known that if a real valued function acting on a convex set satisfies the $n$-variable Jensen inequality, for some natural number $n\geq 2$, then, for all $k\in\{1,\dots, n\}$, it fulfills the $k$-variable Jensen inequality as…
Let $(X,\mathcal H)$ be a $\mathcal P$-harmonic space and assume for simplicity that constants are harmonic. Given a numerical function $\varphi$ on $X$ which is locally lower bounded, let \begin{equation*} J_\varphi(x):=\sup\{\int^\ast…
We develop a new framework for the Jensen-type inequalities that allows us to deal with functions not necessarily convex and Borel measures not necessarily positive.
Given a complex meromorphic function, it is well defined its Riesz measure in terms of the laplacian of the logarithm of its modulus. Moreover, related to this tool, it is possible to prove the celebrated Jensen formula. In the present…
In this note we describe some results concerning upper and lower bounds for the Jensen functional. We use several known and new results to shed light on the concepts of superterzatic functions.
This work studies the Geometric Jensen-Shannon divergence, based on the notion of geometric mean of probability measures, in the setting of Gaussian measures on an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space. On the set of all Gaussian measures…
The study deals with a minimal energy problem over noncompact classes of infinite dimensional vector measures in a locally compact space. The components are positive measures (charges) satisfying certain normalizing assumptions and…
Let $T$ be a positive closed current of unit mass on the complex projective space $\mathbb P^n$. For certain values $\alpha<1$, we prove geometric properties of the set of points in $\mathbb P^n$ where the Lelong number of $T$ exceeds…
In this paper we point out a converse result of the celebrated Jensen inequality for differentiable convex mappings of several variables and apply it to counterpart well-known analytic inequalities. Applications to Shannon's and Renyi's…
We develop potential theory for $m$-subharmonic functions with respect to a Hermitian metric on a Hermitian manifold. First, we show that the complex Hessian operator is well-defined for bounded functions in this class. This allows to…
The classical criterion of Jensen for the Riemann hypothesis is that all of the associated Jensen polynomials have only real zeros. We find a new version of this criterion, using linear combinations of Hermite polynomials, and show that…
