The notion of a Galvin orientation of a line graph is introduced, generalizing the idea used by Galvin in his landmark proof of the list-edge-colouring conjecture for bipartite graphs. If L(G) has a proper Galvin orientation with respect to…
Using a natural representation of a $1/s$-concave function on $\mathbb{R}^d$ as a convex set in $\mathbb{R}^{d+1},$ we derive a simple formula for the integral of its $s$-polar. This leads to convexity properties of the integral of the…
A multivariate Gauss-Lucas theorem is proved, sharpening and generalizing previous results on this topic. The theorem is stated in terms of a seemingly new notion of convexity. Applications to multivariate stable polynomials are given.
We prove a strengthened form of convexity for operator monotone decreasing positive functions defined on the positive real numbers. This extends Ando and Hiai's work to allow arbitrary positive maps instead of states (or the identity map),…
Matrix versions of some basic convexity inequalities are given. Further results on the same topic are proved in the recent papers on arxiv: 1. Hermitian operators and convex functions, 2. A concavity inequality for symmetric norms, 3.…
In this article, we prove that convex functions and log-convex functions obey certain general refinements that lead to several refinements and reverses of well known inequalities for matrices, including Young's inequality, Heinz inequality,…
Generalization of the integral representation of the gamma function has been obtained, which shows that the Hankel contour assumes rotation in the complex plane. The range of admissible values for the contour rotation angle is set. Using…
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…
The paper studies logarithmic convexity and concavity of the generalized hypergeometric function with respect to simultaneous shift of several parameters. We use integral representations and properties of Meijer's $G$ function to prove…
Abstract convexity generalises classical convexity by considering the suprema of functions taken from an arbitrarily defined set of functions. These are called the abstract linear (abstract affine) functions. The purpose of this paper is to…
A linear functional of an object from a convex symmetric set can be optimally estimated, in a worst-case sense, by a linear functional of observations made on the object. This well-known fact is extended here to a nonlinear setting: other…
A new version of the Hadwiger theorem on convex functions is established and an explicit representation of functional intrinsic volumes is found using new functional Cauchy-Kubota formulas. In addition, connections between functional…
An analysis of the zeta and gamma function is presented, using elementary functions like [] and {}, a general formula for the angle of zeta(1/2 + i*n) is found and the same for the gamma function.
In this note we explore the relationship between the operation of convolution of functions and the Eulerian integrals. This approach allow us to obtain some expressions for the convolution of a certain class of functions in terms of the…
In this paper, authors study the convexity and concavity properties of real-valued function with respect to the classical means, and prove a conjecture posed by Bruce Ebanks in \cite{e}.
The logarithmic coefficients $\gamma_n$ of an analytic and univalent function $f$ in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}=\{z\in\mathbb{C}:|z|<1\}$ with the normalization $f(0)=0=f'(0)-1$ are defined by $\log \frac{f(z)}{z}= 2\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}…
In this paper, we study convex analysis and its theoretical applications. We first apply important tools of convex analysis to Optimization and to Analysis. We then show various deep applications of convex analysis and especially infimal…
Eigenvalues inequalities involving (log) convex/concav functions and Hermitian matrices, positive unital maps are considered. Simple proofs of Bhatia-Kittaneh inequality and Naimark dilation theorem are given.
We give two different definitions of what it means for a matrix-valued function to be log concave, guided by similar notions in complex differential geometry. After discussing a few simple examples, we proceed to develop some of the basic…
