Hyper-Positive Real, matrix-valued, rational functions are associated with absolute stability (the Lurie problem). Here, quantitative subsets of Hyper-positive functions, related through nested inclusions, are introduced. Structurally, this…
Absolute continuity implies uniform continuity, but generally not vice versa. In this short note, we present one sufficient condition for a uniformly continuous function to be absolutely continuous, which is the following theorem: For a…
We present two results on generalized Darboux properties of additive real functions. The first results deals with a weak continuity property, called ${\bf Q}$-continuity, shared by all additive functions. We show that every ${\bf…
The Kantorovich function $(x^TAx)(x^T A^{-1} x)$, where $A$ is a positive definite matrix, is not convex in general. From matrix/convex analysis point of view, it is interesting to address the question: When is this function convex? In this…
In the paper we prove criteria for convexity and concavity of $f$-potentials ($f$-means, Kolmogorov means, weighted quasi-arithmetic means), which particular cases are the arithmetic, geometric, harmonic means, the thermodynamic potential…
The aim of this paper is to present some new Fejer-type results for convex functions. Improvements of Young's inequality (the arithmetic-geometric mean inequality) and other applications to special means are pointed as well.
We generalise the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus to higher dimensions. Our generalisation is based on the observation that the antiderivative of a function of $n$-variables is a solution of a partial differential equation of order $n$…
In this paper we prove that if $X $ is a Banach space, then for every lower semi-continuous bounded below function $f, $ there exists a $\left(\varphi_1, \varphi_2\right)-$convex function $g, $ with arbitrarily small norm, such that $f + g…
A complete family of functional Steiner formulas is established. As applications, an explicit representation of functional intrinsic volumes using special mixed Monge-Amp\`ere measures and a new version of the Hadwiger theorem on convex…
We show that domains, that allow for convex functions with unbounded gradient at their boundary, are convex.
We characterize the validity of the Maximum Principle in bounded domains for fully nonlinear degenerate elliptic operators in terms of the sign of a suitably defined generalized principal eigenvalue. Here, maximum principle refers to the…
We formulate a multi-valued version of the Tietze-Urysohn extension theorem. Precisely, we prove that any upper semicontinuous multi-valued map with nonempty closed convex values defined on a closed subset (resp. closed perfectly normal…
We study the pointwise supremum of convex integral functionals $\mathcal{I}_{f,\gamma}(\xi)= \sup_{Q} \left( \int_\Omega f(\omega,\xi(\omega))Q(d\omega)-\gamma(Q)\right)$ on $L^\infty(\Omega,\mathcal{F},\mathbb{P})$ where…
For an arbitrary set $E \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, and functions $f:E \to \mathbb{R}$, $G: E\to \mathbb{R}^n$ with $G$ bounded, we construct $C^1(\mathbb{R}^n)$ convex extensions $(F, \nabla F)$ of $(f,G)$ with the sharp Lipschitz constant $$…
In this paper, we introduce a new concept of generalized convexity for E-differentiable vector optimization problems. Namely, the notion of exponentially E-invexity is defined. Further, some properties and results of exponentially E-invex…
Let $(X,\mathcal{B}, \mu, T)$ be an ergodic dynamical system on a non-atomic finite measure space. We assume without loss of generality that $\mu(X)=1.$ Consider the maximal function $\dis R^*:(f, g) \in L^p\times L^q \to R^*(f, g)(x) =…
We consider scalar equilibrium problems governed by a bifunction in a finite-dimensional framework. By using classical arguments in Convex Analysis, we show that under suitable generalized convexity assumptions imposed on the bifunction,…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of $q$-quasiadditivity of arithmetic functions, as well as the related concept of $q$-quasimultiplicativity, which generalises strong $q$-additivity and -multiplicativity, respectively. We show that…
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…
Submodular Functions are a special class of set functions, which generalize several information-theoretic quantities such as entropy and mutual information [1]. Submodular functions have subgradients and subdifferentials [2] and admit…
