Mixed volumes, which are the polarization of volume with respect to the Minkowski addition, are fundamental objects in convexity. In this note we announce the construction of mixed integrals, which are functional analogs of mixed volumes.…
A cornerstone in convex analysis is the crucial relationship between functions and their convex conjugate via the Fenchel-Young inequality. In this dual variable setting, the maximal monotonicity of the contact set $ \big\{(x,y) \ \big| \…

Every polyhedron can be decomposed into a Minkowski sum (or vector sum) of a bounded polyhedron and a polyhedral cone. This paper establishes similar statements for some classes of discrete sets in discrete convex analysis, such as…

Two simple observations are made: (1) If the normal function associated to a Hodge class has a zero locus of positive dimension, then it has a singularity. (2) The intersection cohomology of the dual variety contains the cohomology of the…
A key idea in convex optimization theory is to use well-structured affine functions to approximate general functions, leading to impactful developments in conjugate functions and convex duality theory. This raises the question: what are the…

Properties of two classes of generally convex sets in the n-dimentional real Euclidean space, called m-semiconvex and weakly m-semiconvex, 1<=m<n, are investigated in the present work. In particular, it is established that an open set with…
We define covering and separation numbers for functions. We investigate their properties, and show that for some classes of functions there is exact equality of separation and covering. We provide analogues for various geometric…
There exist two major subclasses in the class of superquadratic functions, one comprises concave and decreasing functions, while the other consists of convex and monotone increasing functions. Leveraging this distinction, we introduce…
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…
Integral properties of multifunctions with closed convex values are studied. In this more general framework not all the tools and the technique used for weakly compact convex valued multifunctions work. We pay particular attention to the…
