Convex sets appear in various mathematical theories, and are used to define notions such as convex functions and hulls. As an abstraction from the usual definition of convex sets in vector spaces, we formalize in Coq an intrinsic…
We define convexity canonically in the setting of monoids. We show that many classical results from convex analysis hold for functions defined on such groups and semigroups, rather than only on vector spaces. Some examples and…
We prove upper and lower bounds for a variational functional for convex functions satisfying certain boundary conditions on a sector of the unit ball in two dimensions. The functional contains two terms: The full Hessian and its…
Generalized polyhedral convex sets, generalized polyhedral convex functions on locally convex Hausdorff topological vector spaces, and the related constructions such as sum of sets, sum of functions, directional derivative, infimal…
We prove two separate lower bounds -- one for nondegenerate convex domains and the other for nondegenerate $\mathbb{C}$-convex (but not necessarily convex) domains -- for the squeezing function that hold true for all domains in…
We consider a global, nonlinear version of the Whitney extension problem for manifold-valued smooth functions on closed domains $C$, with non-smooth boundary, in possibly non-compact manifolds. Assuming $C$ is a submanifold with corners, or…
Fractal geometry and analysis constitute a growing field, with numerous applications, based on the principles of fractional calculus. Fractals sets are highly effective in improving convex inequalities and their generalisations. In this…
In this paper we show how the superquadratic functions can be used as a tool for researching other types of convex functions like $\phi $-convexity, strong-convexity and uniform convexity. We show how to use inequalities satisfied by…
Extended real-valued functions are often used in optimization theory, but in different ways for infimum problems and for supremum problems. We present an approach to extended real-valued functions that works for all types of problems and…
We introduce and investigate a new generalized convexity notion for functions called prox-convexity. The proximity operator of such a function is single-valued and firmly nonexpansive. We provide examples of (strongly) quasiconvex, weakly…
In this paper we study the regularity of the local minima of integral functionals: in particular, not convexity (quasi-convexity, policonvexity or rank one convexity) hypothesis will be made on the density, neither structure hypothesis nor…
Convexity is an important notion in non linear optimization theory as well as in infinite dimensional functional analysis. As will be seen below, very simple and powerful tools will be derived from elementary duality arguments (which are…
We shown that every continuous local functional on the space of finite convex functions on $\mathbb{R}^n$ is a valuation. This relation is used to establish a homogeneous decomposition for the class of polynomial local functionals as well…
Functions that are piecewise defined are a common sight in mathematics while convexity is a property especially desired in optimization. Suppose now a piecewise-defined function is convex on each of its defining components - when can we…
In the paper, we introduce the generalized convex function on fractal sets of real line numbers and study the properties of the generalized convex function. Based on these properties, we establish the generalized Jensen inequality and…
A characterization of the proximal normal cone is obtained and a separation theorem for convex subsets of Riemannian manifolds is established. Moreover, the convexity of the distance function $d_S$ for a convex subset $S$ in the cases where…
We study continuity and regularity of convex extensions of functions from a compact set $C$ to its convex hull $K$. We show that if $C$ contains the relative boundary of $K$, and $f$ is a continuous convex function on $C$, then $f$ extends…
In this paper we improve results related to Normalized Jensen Functional for convex functions and Uniformly Convex Functions.
We extend Freiman's inequality on the cardinality of the sumset of a $d$ dimensional set. We consider different sets related by an inclusion of their convex hull, and one of them added possibly several times.
In this work, we prove the existence of local convex solution to the degenerate Hessian equation
