We consider the space of convex functions defined in the Euclidean $n$-dimensional space, which are lower semi-continuous and tend to infinity at infinity. We study real-valued valuations defined on this space of functions, which are…
In this paper we obtain new sufficient conditions for representation of a function as an absolutely convergent Fourier integral. Unlike those known earlier, these conditions are given in terms of belonging to weighted spaces. Adding weights…
We prove that a 3--dimensional hyperbolic cusp with convex polyhedral boundary is uniquely determined by its Gauss image. Furthermore, any spherical metric on the torus with cone singularities of negative curvature and all closed…
We characterize completely the Gneiting class of space-time covariance functions and give more relaxed conditions on the involved functions. We then show necessary conditions for the construction of compactly supported functions of the…
The Weak Gravity Conjecture is typically stated as a bound on the mass-to-charge ratio of a particle in the theory. Alternatively, it has been proposed that its natural formulation is in terms of the existence of a particle which is…
The Weak Gravity Conjecture has recently been re-formulated in terms of a particle with non-negative self-binding energy. Because of the dual conformal field theory (CFT) formulation in the anti-de Sitter space the conformal dimension…
In this paper we investigate the motion of small compact objects in non-vacuum spacetimes using methods from effective field theory in curved spacetime. Although a vacuum formulation is sufficient in many astrophysical contexts, there are…
In this note we extend some new estimates of the integral $\int_a^b (x-a)^p(b-x)^qf(x)dx$ for functions when a power of the absolute value is $P-$convex.
Gibbons and Schiller have raised the physically interesting conjecture that forces in general relativity are bounded from above by the mathematically compact relation ${\cal F}\leq c^4/4G$. In the present compact paper we explicitly prove,…
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 present sufficient conditions ensuring that the sum of the image of quadratic functions and the nonnegative orthant is convex. The hidden convexity of the trust-region problem with linear inequality constraints is…
We study the properties of convex functionals which have been proposed for the simulation of charged molecular systems within the Poisson-Boltzmann approximation. We consider the extent to which the functionals reproduce the true…
For convex univalent functions we give instances where the sharp bound for various coefficient functionals are identical to those for the corresponding bound for the inverse function. We give instances where the sharp bounds differ and also…
In this paper, we derive new estimates for the remainder term of the midpoint, trapezoid, and Simpson formulae for functions whose derivatives in absolute value at certain power are quasi-convex. Some applications to special means of real…
In this note we formulate a sufficient condition for the quasiconvexity at $x \mapsto \lambda x$ of certain functionals $I(u)$ which model the stored-energy of elastic materials subject to a deformation $u$. The materials we consider may…
In this note we study restrictions on the recently introduced super-additive and sub-additive transformations, $A\mapsto A^*$ and $A\mapsto A_*$, of an aggregation function $A$. We prove that if $A^*$ has a slightly stronger property of…
The selection of basic variables in current-density functional theory and formal properties of the resulting formulations are critically examined. Focus is placed on the extent to which the Hohenberg--Kohn theorem, constrained-search…
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}.
We study necessary and sufficient conditions for a Muckenhoupt weight $w \in L^1_{\mathrm{loc}}(\mathbb R^d)$ that yield almost sure existence of radial, and vertical, limits at infinity for Sobolev functions $u \in…
We show that a family of random variables is uniformly integrable if and only if it is stochastically bounded in the increasing convex order by an integrable random variable. This result is complemented by proving analogous statements for…
