We introduce the notion of combinatorial positivity of translation-invariant valuations on convex polytopes that extends the nonnegativity of Ehrhart h*-vectors. We give a surprisingly simple characterization of combinatorially positive…

In a complete Riemannian manifold $(M, g)$ if the hessian of a real valued function satisfies some suitable conditions then it restricts the geometry of $(M, g)$. In this paper we characterize all compact rank-1 symmetric spaces, as those…

Quaternionic analysis is regarded as a broadly accepted branch of classical analysis referring to many different types of extensions of the Cauchy-Riemann equations to the quaternion skew field $\mathbb H$. In this work we deals with a…

Consider an open set $\mathbb{D}\subseteq\mathbb{R}^n$, equipped with a probability measure $\mu$. An important characteristic of a smooth function $f:\mathbb{D}\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ is its \emph{second-moment matrix} $\Sigma_{\mu}:=\int…

We obtain asymptotic formulae for the second discrete moments of the Riemann zeta function over arithmetic progressions $\frac{1}{2} + i(a n + b)$. It reveals noticeable relation between the discrete moments and the continuous moment of the…

In this paper we give a negative answer to the question posed in [15, Open Question 2.1] about possible gains of integrability of determinants of divergence-free, non-negative definite matrix-fields. We also analyze the case in which the…

Davydov, Moldavskaya, and Zitikis introduced local indices for quantifying the lack of convexity of a \(C^2\) function by measuring the nuclear-norm distance of its Hessian from the cone of positive semidefinite matrices. This paper…

On a constraint manifold we give an explicit formula for the Hessian matrix of a cost function that involves the Hessian matrix of a prolonged function and the Hessian matrices of the constraint functions. We give an explicit formula for…

We establish for $2 \le k \le n-1$ the strict concavity of the function $f_k(\lambda)=\log(\sigma_k(\lambda))$ on a subset of the positive cone $\Gamma_n=\{\lambda=(\lambda_{1}, \lambda_{2}, \cdots,\lambda_{n})\in \mathbb{R}^n;…

This paper presents necessary, sufficient, and equivalent conditions for the spherical convexity of non-homogeneous quadratic functions. In addition to motivating this study and identifying useful criteria for determining whether such…

Our primary aim is to explore a sufficient condition for the class of meromorphically convex functions of order $\alpha$, where $0 \leq \alpha < 1$. The investigation will focus on studying a class of continuous functions defined on…

In this paper a new class of modified-Hessian equations, closely related to the Optimal Transportation Equation, will be introduced and studied. In particular, the existence of globally smooth, classical solutions of these equations…

A version of the Hodge-Riemann relations for valuations was recently conjectured and proved in several special cases by the first-named author. The Lefschetz operator considered there arises as either the product or the convolution with the…

We establish the meromorphic continuation of certain multiple zeta functions of generalized Hurwitz type. From this meromorphic continuation, we obtain explicit formulas for their (derivative) values at nonpositive integers along a given…

We show an analogue of the Klain-Schneider theorem for valuations that are invariant under rotations around a fixed axis, called zonal. Using this, we establish a new integral representation of zonal valuations involving mixed area measures…

We provide proof that the optimal value function of a convex parametrized optimization problem in Euclidean spaces is itself a convex function onto the extended real line.

In this article, we consider a class of functions on $\mathbb{R}^d$, called positive homogeneous functions, which interact well with certain continuous one-parameter groups of (generally anisotropic) dilations. Generalizing the Euclidean…

In this paper, we give an introduction to the rationality of the equivariant Morse stratification, and state the author's results on zeta functions of prehomogeneous vector spaces.

We consider a locally constrained curvature flow in a static rotationally symmetric space $\mathbf{N}^{n+1}$, which was firstly introduced by Hu and Li in the hyperbolic space. We prove that if the initial hypersurface is graphical, then…

The Eigendecomposition of quadratic forms (symmetric matrices) guaranteed by the spectral theorem is a foundational result in applied mathematics. Motivated by a shared structure found in inferential problems of recent interest---namely…
