In this paper, we give more general definitions of weighted means and MN-convex functions. Using these definitions, we also obtain some generalized results related to properties of MN-convex functions. The importance of this study is that…

In this work we present a new, natural, definition for the mean width of log-concave functions. We show that the new definition coincide with a previous one by B. Klartag and V. Milman, and deduce some properties of the mean width,…

Convenient parameterizations of matrices in terms of vectors transform (certain classes of) matrix equations into covariant (hence rotation-invariant) vector equations. Certain recently introduced such parameterizations are tersely…

Let $\ID$ denote the open unit disk and $f:\,\ID\TO\BAR\IC$ be meromorphic and univalent in $\ID$ with the simple pole at $p\in (0,1)$ and satisfying the standard normalization $f(0)=f'(0)-1=0$. Also, let $f$ have the expansion…

In the $1970$s Nicolas proved that the coefficients $p_d(n)$ defined by the generating function \begin{equation*} \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} p_d(n) \, q^n = \prod_{n=1}^{\infty} \left( 1- q^n\right)^{-n^{d-1}} \end{equation*} are log-concave for…

We prove the (generalized) principal pivot transform is matrix monotone, in the sense of the L\"owner ordering, under minimal hypotheses. This improves on the recent results of J. E. Pascoe and R. Tully-Doyle, Monotonicity of the principal…

Extension problems for polynomial valuations on different cones of convex functions are investigated. It is shown that for the classes of functions under consideration, the extension problem reduces to a simple geometric obstruction on the…

Higher-rank Minkowski valuations are efficient means for describing the geometry and connectivity of spatial patterns. We show how to extend the framework of the scalar Minkowski valuations to vector- and tensor-valued measures. The…

In this note we provide a simple proof of some properties enjoyed by convex functions having the engulfing property. In particular, making use only of results peculiar to convex analysis, we prove that differentiability and strict convexity…

In this research we introduce the Banach space valued $H^p$ spaces with $A_p$ weight, and prove the following results: Let $\mathbb{A}$ and $\mathbb{B}$ Banach spaces, and $T$ be a convolution operator mapping $\mathbb{A}$-valued functions…

A simple proof is given for the convexity of log det (I+K X^{-1}) in the positive definite matrix variable X with a given positive semidefinite K.

Given a strictly positive measure, we characterize inner semicontinuous solid convex-valued mappings for which continuous functions which are selections almost everywhere are selections. This class contains continuous mappings as well as…

Valuations on the space of finite-valued convex functions on $\mathbb{C}^n$ that are continuous, dually epi-translation invariant, as well as $\mathrm{U}(n)$-invariant are completely classified. It is shown that the space of these…

We characterize real and complex functions which, when applied entrywise to square matrices, yield a positive definite matrix if and only if the original matrix is positive definite. We refer to these transformations as sign preservers.…

In his work on log-concavity of multiplicities, Okounkov showed in passing that one could associate a convex body to a linear series on a projective variety, and then use convex geometry to study such linear systems. Although Okounkov was…

This paper is devoted to studying of some properties of multivalued mappings in Euclidean space. There were proved theorems on a fixed point for multivalued mappings whose restrictions to some subset in the closure of a domain satisfy "a…

We prove a new converse theorem for Borcherds' multiplicative theta lift which improves the previously known results. To this end we develop a newform theory for vector valued modular forms for the Weil representation, which might be of…

This note is propaedeutic to the forthcoming work \cite{sil}; here we develop the terminology and results required by that paper. More specifically we introduce the concept of scalarly essentially integrable locally convex vector-valued…

We describe various structures of algebraic nature on the space of continuous valuations on convex sets, their properties (like versions of Poincar\'e duality and hard Lefschetz theorem), and their relations and applications to integral…

We consider some conditions under which a smooth projective variety X is actually the projective space. We also extend to the case of positive characteristic some results in the theory of vector bundle adjunction. We use methods and…
