This study focuses on convex functions and their generalized. Thus, we start this study by giving the definition of convex functions and some of their properties and discussing a simple geometric property. Then we generalize E-convex…

Let $n \in \N$ and $M_n$ be the algebra of $n \times n$ matrices. We call a function $f$ matrix monotone of order $n$ or $n$-monotone in short whenever the inequality $f(a) \leq f(b)$ holds for every pair of selfadjoint matrices $a, b \in…

We define two natural classes of functions, called 2-open and 2-closed, that are closest to open and closed functions. We show that they have the following property: there are $X_i \subset X$ $ (i=1,2,...$) such that $f|X_i$ are open or…

Jensen's operator inequality for convexifiable functions is obtained. This result contains classical Jensen's operator inequality as a particular case. As a consequence, a new refinement and a reverse of Young's inequality is given.
