It is known that PQ-symmetric maps on the boundary characterize the quasi-isometry type of visual hyperbolic spaces, in particular, of geodesically complete \br-trees. We define a map on pairs of PQ-symmetric ultrametric spaces which…

This paper provides an unique dual representation of set-valued lower semi-continuous quasiconvex and convex functions. The results are based on a duality result for increasing set valued functions.
In this paper, we first define the concept of convexity in G-metric spaces. We then use Mann iterative process in this newly defined convex G-metric space to prove some convergence results for some classes of mappings. In this way, we can…
We show that any bounded domain in a doubling quasiconvex metric space can be approximated from inside and outside by uniform domains.
Nearly convex sets play important roles in convex analysis, optimization and theory of monotone operators. We give a systematic study of nearly convex sets, and construct examples of subdifferentials of lower semicontinuous convex functions…
A partial semimetric on V_n={1, ..., n} is a function f=((f_{ij})): V_n^2 -> R_>=0 satisfying f_ij=f_ji >= f_ii and f_ij+f_ik-f_jk-f_ii >= 0 for all i,j,k in V_n. The function f is a weak partial semimetric if f_ij >= f_ii is dropped, and…
One of the main questions that arise when studying random and quasi-random structures is which properties P are such that any object that satisfies P "behaves" like a truly random one. In the context of graphs, Chung, Graham, and Wilson…
In this paper, we introduce new properties of the relative interior calculus for nearly convex sets, functions, and set-valued mappings. These properties are important for the development of duality theory in optimization. Then we…
A function $F$ defined on all subsets of a finite ground set $E$ is quasi-concave if $F(X\cup Y)\geq\min\{F(X),F(Y)\}$ for all $X,Y\subset E$. Quasi-concave functions arise in many fields of mathematics and computer science such as social…
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…
This paper introduces the proper notion of variational quasiconvexity associated to a group of diffeomorphisms. We prove a lower semicontinuity theorem connected to this notion. In the second part of the paper we apply this result to a…
We describe a new approach to the notion of general hypergeometric functions
This paper aims at providing further studies of the notion of quasi-relative interior for convex sets introduced by Borwein and Lewis. We obtain new formulas for representing quasi-relative interiors of convex graphs of set-valued mappings…
In this paper the notion of the intrinsic geometry of an almost contact metric manifold is introduced. Description of some classes of spaces with almost contact metric structures in terms of the intrinsic geometry is given. A new type of…
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…
Determination of quasi-invariant generalized functions is important for a variety of problems in representation theory, notably character theory and restriction problems. In this note, we review some new and easy-to-use techniques to show…
We show that any infinite order element $g$ of a virtually cyclic hyperbolically embedded subgroup of a group $G$ is Morse, that is to say any quasi-geodesic connecting points in the cyclic group $C$ generated by $g$ stays close to $C$.…
We study convex and quasiconvex functions on a metric graph. Given a set of points in the metric graph, we consider the largest convex function below the prescribed datum. We characterize this largest convex function as the unique largest…
The object of this paper is to introduce and study the concept of quasi-geometric infinite divisibility for distributions on $\bf R_+$. These distributions arise as mixing distributions of (discrete) geometric infinitely divisible Poisson…
