In Guo and Peng's article [Spherically convex sets and spherically convex functions, J. Convex Anal. 28 (2021), 103--122], one defines the notions of spherical convex sets and functions on "general curved surfaces" in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$…
We quickly review and make some comments on the concept of convexity in metric spaces due to Takahashi. Then we introduce a concept of convex structure based convexity to functions on these spaces and refer to it as $W-$convexity.…
We show a general phenomenon of the constrained functional value for densities satisfying general convexity conditions, which generalizes the observation in Bobkov and Madiman (2011) that the entropy per coordinate in a log-concave random…
In this paper we consider basic hypergeometric functions introduced by Heine. We study mapping properties of certain ratios of basic hypergeometric functions having shifted parameters and show that they map the domains of analyticity onto…
Geometrically convex functions constitute an interesting class of functions obtained by replacing the arithmetic mean with the geometric mean in the definition of convexity. As recently suggested, geometric convexity may be a sensible…
This paper studies the log-convexity of the extended beta functions. As a consequence, Tur\'an-type inequalities are established.The monotonicity, log-convexity, log-concavity of extended hypergeometric functions are deduced by using the…

Convex functions have played a major role in the field of Mathematical inequalities. In this paper, we introduce a new concept related to convexity, which proves better estimates when the function is somehow more convex than another. In…
In this brief note, it is shown that the function p^TW log(p) is convex in p if W is a diagonally dominant positive definite M-matrix. The techniques used to prove convexity are well-known in linear algebra and essentially involves…
The parabolic functions are introduced in analogy to the circular and hyperbolic cases. We discuss the relevant properties, the geometrical interpretation and touch on possible generalizations and their link with the modular elliptic…
In this paper, four parameters Wright function is considered. Certain geometric properties such as starlikeness, convexity, uniform convexity and close-to-convexity are discussed for this function. Further, certain geometric properties of…
We revisit and prove some convexity inequalities for trace functions conjectured in the earlier part I. The main functional considered is \Phi_{p,q}(A_1,A_2,...,A_m) = (trace((\sum_{j=1}^m A_j^p)^{q/p}))^{1/q} for m positive definite…
In this work, we extend a classical theorem of Keith Ball on integrals of log-concave functions along rays against the weight $r^{p-1}$ to the previously inaccessible regime $p\in (-1,0)$: if $g:\mathbb R^n\to\mathbb R_+$ is an integrable…
We obtain operator concavity (convexity) of some functions of two or three variables by using perspectives of regular operator mappings of one or several variables. As an application, we obtain, for $ 0<p < 1,$ concavity, respectively…
In this paper, authors study the generalized complete $(p,q)$-elliptic integrals of the first and the second kind as an application of generalized trigonometric functions with two parameters, and establish the Tur\'an type inequalities of…
Generalized trigonometric functions with two parameters were introduced by Dr\'{a}bek and Man\'{a}sevich to study an inhomogeneous eigenvalue problem of the $p$-Laplacian. Concerning these functions, no multiple-angle formula has been known…
In contemporary convex geometry, the rapidly developing L_p-Brunn Minkowski theory is a modern analogue of the classical Brunn Minkowski theory. A cornerstone of this theory is the L_p-affine surface area for convex bodies. Here, we…
In the present work weighted area integral means $M_{p,\varphi}(f;{\mathrm {Im}}z)$ are studied and it is proved that the function $y\to \log M_{p,\varphi}(f;y)$ is convex in the case when $f$ belongs to a Hardy space on the upper…
We identify the maximal real interval on which $\sin_{p,n}$ is real-analytic for any real number $p>1$ and any integer $n>1$. We achieve this by first proving that $\sin_{p,n}$ is analytic at $(1/2){\pi}_{p,n}$ iff $p=m/(m-1)$ for some…
