John's inclusion states that a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^d$ can be covered by the $d$-dilation of its maximal volume ellipsoid. We obtain a certain John-type inclusion for log-concave functions. As a byproduct of our approach, we establish…
In this paper, we extend and generalize several previous works on maximal-volume positions of convex bodies. First, we analyze the maximal positive-definite image of one convex body inside another, and the resulting decomposition of the…
John's fundamental theorem characterizing the largest volume ellipsoid contained in a convex body $K$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ has seen several generalizations and extensions. One direction, initiated by V. Milman is to replace ellipsoids by…
We extend the notion of John's ellipsoid to the setting of integrable log-concave functions. This will allow us to define the integral ratio of a log-concave function, which will extend the notion of volume ratio, and we will find the…
We introduce the notion of Loewner (ellipsoid) function for a log concave function and show that it is an extension of the Loewner ellipsoid for convex bodies. We investigate its duality relation to the recently defined John (ellipsoid)…
We introduce a new way of representing logarithmically concave functions on $\mathbb{R}^{d}$. It allows us to extend the notion of the largest volume ellipsoid contained in a convex body to the setting of logarithmically concave functions…
We define a one parameter family of positions of a convex body which interpolates between the John position and the Loewner position: for $r>0$, we say that $K$ is in maximal intersection position of radius $r$ if $\textrm{Vol}_{n}(K\cap…
This paper's origins are in two papers: One by Colesanti and Fragal\`a studying the surface area measure of a log-concave function, and one by Cordero-Erausquin and Klartag regarding the moment measure of a convex function. These notions…
Given a convex body $K \subseteq \mathbb R^n$ in L\"owner position we study the problem of constructing a non-negative centered isotropic measure supported in the contact points, whose existence is guaranteed by John's Theorem. The method…
We introduce floating bodies for convex, not necessarily bounded subsets of $\mathbb{R}^n$. This allows us to define floating functions for convex and log concave functions and log concave measures. We establish the asymptotic behavior of…
On the class of log-concave functions on $\R^n$, endowed with a suitable algebraic structure, we study the first variation of the total mass functional, which corresponds to the volume of convex bodies when restricted to the subclass of…
Given a centrally symmetric convex body $K \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ and a positive number $\lambda$, we consider, among all ellipsoids $E \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ of volume $\lambda$, those that best approximate $K$ with respect to the symmetric…
The classic Riesz representation theorem characterizes all linear and increasing functionals on the space $C_{c}(X)$ of continuous compactly supported functions. A geometric version of this result, which characterizes all linear increasing…
In this paper we prove different functional inequalities extending the classical Rogers-Shephard inequalities for convex bodies. The original inequalities provide an optimal relation between the volume of a convex body and the volume of…
Many classical problems in convex geometry can be cast as optimization problems under certain containment conditions. The arguably best-understood example is volume-maximization of convex bodies contained in other convex bodies, where the…
We provide extensions of geometric inequalities about sections and projections of convex bodies to the setting of integrable log-concave functions. Namely, we consider suitable generalizations of the affine and dual affine quermassintegrals…
The aim of this paper is to develop the $L_p$ John ellipsoid for the geometry of log-concave functions. Using the results of the $L_p$ Minkowski theory for log-concave function established in \cite{fan-xin-ye-geo2020}, we characterize the…
A function is exponentially concave if its exponential is concave. We consider exponentially concave functions on the unit simplex. In a previous paper we showed that gradient maps of exponentially concave functions provide solutions to a…
We extend the notion of the smallest volume ellipsoid containing a convex body in~$\mathbb{R}^{d}$ to the setting of logarithmically concave functions. We consider a vast class of logarithmically concave functions whose superlevel sets are…
Recall that a convex body $K$ is in John's position if the unit Euclidean ball is the maximal volume ellipsoid contained in $K$. Approximating convex body in John's position by polytopes we obtain the following results. 1. Let $n>R_n\ge 1$…
