The aim of this expository article is to present recent developments in the centuries old discussion on the interrelations between continuous and differentiable real valued functions of one real variable. The truly new results include,…
The entropy power inequality, which plays a fundamental role in information theory and probability, may be seen as an analogue of the Brunn-Minkowski inequality. Motivated by this connection to Convex Geometry, we survey various recent…
We prove that under very mild conditions for any interpolation formula $f(x) = \sum_{\lambda\in \Lambda} f(\lambda)a_\lambda(x) + \sum_{\mu\in M} \hat{f}(\mu)b_{\mu}(x)$ we have a lower bound for the counting functions $n_\Lambda(R_1) +…
Rubin's generalized Minkowski--Funk transforms $M_t^\alpha$ on the sphere $\mathbb{S}^n$ give rise, for irrational radii $t=\cos(\beta\pi)$, to a small denominator problem governed by the asymptotic behavior of their spectral multipliers.…
In memory of Polish mathematicians murdured by the Soviets and the Nazis. The total record of accomplishments of Marcinkiewicz in his short life, his talent, perceptions rich in concepts, and technical novelties, go far beyond my ability to…
This is a chapter (planned to appear in Wiley's upcoming Encyclopedia of Operations Research and Management Science) describing parts of the theory of convex polyhedra that are particularly important for optimization. The topics include…
In this paper, we study the conjecture of Gardner and Zvavitch from \cite{GZ}, which suggests that the standard Gaussian measure $\gamma$ enjoys $\frac{1}{n}$-concavity with respect to the Minkowski addition of \textbf{symmetric} convex…
Some subadditivity results involving symmetric (unitarily invariant) norms are obtained. For instance, if $g(t)=\sum_{k=0}^m a_kt^k$ is a polynomial of degree $m$ with non-negative coefficients, then, for all positive operators $A,\,B$ and…
Given a CW-complex A we define an `A-shaped' homology theory which behaves nicely towards A-homotopy groups allowing the generalization of many classical results. We also develop a relative version of the Federer spectral sequence for…
We have investigated some issues relevant for the possibility to construct physical theories on the $\kappa$-Minkowski noncommutative spacetime. The notion of field in $\kappa$-Minkowski has been introduced by generalizing the Weyl…
In every dimension $d \geq 2$, we give an explicit formula that expresses the values of any Schwartz function on $\mathbb{R}^d$ only in terms of its restrictions, and the restrictions of its Fourier transform, to all origin-centered spheres…
The goal of this article is to present a survey of the recent theory of plurisubharmonic functions of quaternionic variables, and its applications to theory of valuations on convex sets and HKT-geometry (HyperK\"ahler with Torsion). The…
The subject of this paper is the history of the Minkowski-Funk Transform. After introducing the Minkowski-Funk Transform as well as its dual transform and a generalization of both, we will present an inversion formula of the Minkowski-Funk…
A longstanding question in the dual Brunn-Minkowski theory is what are the dual analogues of Federer's curvature measures for convex bodies. The answer to this is provided. This leads naturally to dual versions of Minkowski-type problems,…
We develop a differential theory for the polarity transform parallel to that for the Legendre transform, which is applicable when the functions studied are "geometric convex", namely convex, non-negative and vanish at the origin. This…
We give an alternative proof for discrete Brunn-Minkowski type inequalities, recently obtained by Halikias, Klartag and the author. This proof also implies somewhat stronger weighted versions of these inequalities. Our approach generalizes…
According to V.P.Potapov, a classical interpolation problem can be reformulated in terms of a so-called Fundamental Matrix Inequality (FMI). To show that every solution of the FMI satisfies the interpolation problem, we usualy have to…
We unify nonlinear Farkas lemma and S-lemma to a generalized alternative theorem for nonlinear nonconvex system. It provides fruitful applications in globally solving nonconvex non-quadratic optimization problems via revealing the hidden…
The aim of this article is to establish new two-functions minimax inequalities extending classical results such as Simons' minimax theorem. Our results will be proved in a non-compact setting. We also prove, under general conditions, that…
This paper continues the study of a class of compact convex hypersurfaces in Euclidean space $R^{n+1}, ~n \geq 1$, which are boundaries of compact convex bodies obtained by taking the intersection of (solid) confocal paraboloids of…
