A real valued function $f$ defined on a convex $K$ is anemconvex function iff it satisfies $$ f((x+y)/2) \le (f(x)+f(y))/2 + 1. $$ A thorough study of approximately convex functions is made. The principal results are a sharp universal upper…
Characterizations of all continuous, additive and $\mathrm{GL}(n)$-equivariant endomorphisms of the space of convex functions on a Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$, of the subspace of convex functions that are finite in a neighborhood of the…
We mainly establish a monotonicity property between some special Riemann sums of a convex function $f$ on $[a,b]$, which in particular yields that $\frac{b-a}{n+1}\sum_{i=0}^n f\left(a+i\frac{b-a}{n}\right)$ is decreasing while…
In this paper, we not only give the extensions of the results given in [7] by Gill et al. for log-convex functions, but also obtain some new Hadamard type inequalities for log-convex, m-convex and (alpha,m)-convex functions.
In this paper, firstly we have established Hermite-Hadamard's inequalities for s-convex functions in the second sense and m-convex functions via fractional integrals. Secondly, a Hadamard type integral inequality for the fractional…
This article establishes several remarkably simple identities relating certain metric invariants of level curves of real and complex functions. In particular, we relate lengths of level curves to their curvature and to the gradient field of…
We consider minimization of functions that are compositions of convex or prox-regular functions (possibly extended-valued) with smooth vector functions. A wide variety of important optimization problems fall into this framework. We describe…
In this study, we obtain some new integral inequalities for different classes of convex functions by using some elementary inequalities and classical inequalities like general Cauchy inequality and Minkowski inequality.
We define, in the frame of an abstract Wiener space, the notions of convexity and of concavity for the equivalence classes of random variables. As application we show that some important inequalities of the finite dimensional case have…
A new characterization of convexity of a planar domain is obtained. Its derivation involves two classical facts: the Varadhan's formula, expressing the distance function with respect to the domain's boundary via real-valued solutions of the…
Results on the upper and lower semicontinuity of functionals defined on spaces of convex and more general functions are established. In particular, the following result is obtained. Let $\phi(v; \cdot)$ be the density of the absolutely…
In this paper, we establish new general inequality for convex functions. Then we apply this inequality to obtain the midpoint, trapezoid and averaged midpoint-trapezoid integral inequality. Also, some applications for special means of real…
This talk is a write-up on some origins of abstract convexity and afew vexing limitations on the range of abstraction in convexity.
The author introduces the concept of harmonically ({\alpha},m)-convex functions and establishes some Hermite-Hadamard type inequalities of these classes of functions.
A fundamental open question asking whether all real-valued strongly quasiconvex functions defined on $\mathbb R^n$ are necessarily continuous, akin to their convex counterparts, is answered in detail in this paper. Among other things, we…
We introduce floating bodies for convex, not necessarily bounded subsets of $\mathbb{R}^n$. This allows us to define floating functions for convex and log concave functions and log concave measures. We establish the asymptotic behavior of…
A direct proof of Oka's lemma on the relation of holomorphic convexity and the properties of the distance to the boundary function is provided. Some related problems for subharmonicity properties of this function are also studied. A new…
We derive properties of $\pi(x)$ reminiscent of those of the logarithm and absolute value functions. Two of these properties are similar to the relations defining the linearity of a function. Several applications of these properties of…
In this paper, some monotonicity and concavity results of several functions involving the psi and polygamma functions are proved, and then some known inequalities are extended and generalized.
In this paper, we establish some new inequalities of Ostrowski's type for functions whose derivatives in absolute value are the class of s-convex. Some applications for special means of real numbers are also provided. Finally, some error…
