The note describes the cones in the Euclidean space admitting isotonic metric projection with respect to the coordinate-wise ordering. As a consequence it is showed that the metric projection onto the regression cone (the cone defined by…
The basic tool for solving problems in metric geometry and isotonic regression is the metric projection onto closed convex cones. Isotonicity of these projections with respect to a given order relation can facilitate finding the solutions…
In this paper we extend the notion of a Lorentz cone. We call a closed convex set isotone projection set with respect to a pointed closed convex cone if the projection onto the set is isotone (i.e., monotone) with respect to the order…
By using the metric projection onto a closed self-dual cone of the Euclidean space, M. S. Gowda, R. Sznajder and J. Tao have defined generalized lattice operations, which in the particular case of the nonnegative orthant of a Cartesian…
Proper cones with the property that the projection onto them is isotone with respect to the order they induce are called isotone projection cones. Isotone projection cones and their extensions have been used to solve complementarity…
By using some lattice-like operations which constitute extensions of ones introduced by M. S. Gowda, R. Sznajder and J. Tao for self-dual cones, a new perspective is gained on the subject of isotonicity of the metric projection onto the…
We consider the problem of isotonic regression, where the underlying signal $x$ is assumed to satisfy a monotonicity constraint, that is, $x$ lies in the cone $\{ x\in\mathbb{R}^n : x_1 \leq \dots \leq x_n\}$. We study the isotonic…
Asymmetric vector norms are generalizations of asymmetric norms, where the subadditivity inequality is understood in ordered vector space sense. This relation imposes strong conditions on the ordering itself. This note studies on these…
We show that every multilinear map between Euclidean spaces induces a unique, continuous, Minkowski multilinear map of the corresponding real cones of zonoids. Applied to the wedge product of the exterior algebra of a Euclidean space, this…
While studying some properties of linear operators in a Euclidean Jordan algebra, Gowda, Sznajder and Tao have introduced generalized lattice operations based on the projection onto the cone of squares. In two recent papers of the authors…
Let $E$ be a directed (i.e., positively generated) ordered vector space endowed with an inner product. In this note, we prove that the following statements are equivalent: i) $E$ is a vector lattice and its norm induced by its inner product…
A basic problem in the theory of partially ordered vector spaces is to characterise those cones on which every order-isomorphism is linear. We show that this is the case for every Archimedean cone that equals the inf-sup hull of the sum of…
Cone spherical metrics are conformal metrics with constant curvature one and finitely many conical singularities on compact Riemann surfaces. A cone spherical metric is called irreducible if each developing map of the metric does not have…
Ordered pairs of proper, non-empty real projective conics can be classified modulo rigid isotopy and ambient isotopy. We characterize the classes by equations, inequations and inequalities in the coefficients of the quadratic forms defining…
Solutions of a variational inequality are found by giving conditions for the monotone convergence with respect to a cone of the Picard iteration corresponding to its natural map. One of these conditions is the isotonicity of the projection…
If $K$ and $L$ are mutually dual closed convex cones in a Hilbert space with the metric projections onto them denoted by $P_K$ and $P_L$ respectively, then the following two assertions are equivalent: (i) $P_K$ is isotone with respect to…
Any symmetric affinity function $w: V\times V \to \mathbb{R}_+$ defined on a discrete set $V$ induces Euclidean space structure on $V$. In particular, an undirected graph specified by an affinity (or adjacency) matrix can be considered as a…
In this note, we study monotone dynamical systems with respect to polyhedral cones. Using the half-space representation and the vertex representation, we propose three equivalent conditions to certify monotonicity of a dynamical system with…
A proof of the isometric embedding of a given two-metric in E^3 of class C^1. The method uses the theory of first order partial differential equations. The curvature of the metric plays no role in the proof.
The convex and metric structures underlying probabilistic physical theories are generally described in terms of base normed vector spaces. According to a recent proposal, the purely geometrical features of these spaces are appropriately…
