We introduce dual curvature measures for log-concave functions, which in the case of characteristic functions recover the dual curvature measures for convex bodies introduced by Huang-Lutwak-Yang-Zhang in 2016. Variational formulas are…

In this paper we extend some notions, previously defined for log-concave functions, to the larger domain of so-called {\alpha}-concave functions. We begin with a detailed discussion of support functions - first for log-concave functions,…

The Zygmund vector field maximal function conjecture is a long-standing open problem. This paper establishes a new boundedness criterion that significantly weakens the existing conditions in the literature. Specifically, the required decay…

We review and formulate results concerning log-concavity and strong-log-concavity in both discrete and continuous settings. We show how preservation of log-concavity and strongly log-concavity on $\mathbb{R}$ under convolution follows from…

We establish the existence of a regular functional $M$-position, in the sense of Pisier, for geometric log-concave functions. This provides a functional analogue of Pisier's regular $M$-positions for convex bodies and yields uniform control…

We establish sharp exponential deviation estimates of the information content as well as a sharp bound on the varentropy for the class of convex measures on Euclidean spaces. This generalizes a similar development for log-concave measures…

We prove several noncommutative maximal inequalities associated with convex functions, including a Doob type inequality for a convex function of maximal operators on noncommutative martingales, noncommutative Dunford-Schwartz and Stein…

The authors gave an affine isoperimetric inequality \cite{LYZ2010} that gives a lower bound for the volume of a polar body and the equality holds if and only if the body is a simplex. In this paper, we give a functional isoperimetric…

In this work we present a new, natural, definition for the mean width of log-concave functions. We show that the new definition coincide with a previous one by B. Klartag and V. Milman, and deduce some properties of the mean width,…

Integrally convex functions constitute a fundamental function class in discrete convex analysis, including M-convex functions, L-convex functions, and many others. This paper aims at a rather comprehensive survey of recent results on…

We extend the invertibility principle of J. Bourgain and L. Tzafriri to operators acting on arbitrary decompositions id = \sum x_j \otimes x_j, rather than on the coordinate one. The John's decomposition brings this result to the local…
