We introduce and study a new class of generalized convex functions termed star quasiconvex functions. This class includes convex, star-convex, quasiconvex, quasar-convex, and positively homogeneous functions of any degree $p>0$ as special…

It has been well established that first order optimization methods can converge to the maximal objective value of concave functions and provide constant factor approximation guarantees for (non-convex/non-concave) continuous submodular…

In this paper we consider the relationship between order and topology in the vector lattice $C_b(X)$ of all bounded continuous functions on a Hausdorff space $X$. We prove that the restriction of $f\in C_b(X)$ to a closed set $A$ induces an…

We show how an operation of inf-convolution can be used to approximate convex functions with $C^{1}$ smooth convex functions on Riemannian manifolds with nonpositive curvature (in a manner that not only is explicit but also preserves some…

It is known that the volume functional $\,\phi\mapsto\int e^{-\phi}\,$ satisfies certain concavity or convexity inequalities with respect to three of the four linear structures induced by the order isomorphisms acting on…

A topological space $G$ is said to be a {\it rectifiable space} provided that there are a surjective homeomorphism $\phi :G\times G\rightarrow G\times G$ and an element $e\in G$ such that $\pi_{1}\circ \phi =\pi_{1}$ and for every $x\in G$…

Suppose that $f$ belongs to a suitably defined complete metric space $ {{\cal C}}^{{\alpha}}$ of H\"older $ {\alpha}$-functions defined on $[0,1]$. We are interested in whether one can find large (in the sense of Hausdorff, or lower/upper…

If $u : \Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^d \to {\rm X}$ is a harmonic map valued in a metric space ${\rm X}$ and ${\sf E} : {\rm X} \to \mathbb{R}$ is a convex function, in the sense that it generates an ${\rm EVI}_0$-gradient flow, we prove that…

Given two metric spaces $M$ and $N$ we study, motivated by a question of N. Weaver, conditions under which an isometric composition operator $C_\phi:\mathrm{Lip}_0(M)\longrightarrow \mathrm{Lip}_0(N)$ is isometric depending on the…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be compact Hausdorff spaces, $E$ and $F$ be real or complex normed spaces and $A(X,E)$ be a subspace of $C(X,E)$. For a function $f\in C(X,E)$, let $\coz(f)$ be the cozero set of $f$. A pair of additive maps $S,T: A(X,E) \lo…

We prove that convex functions of finite order on the real line and subharmonic functions of finite order on finite dimensional real space, bounded from above outside of some set of zero relative Lebesgue density, are bounded from above…

The paper deals with the interplay between boundedness, order and ring structures in function lattices on the line and related metric spaces. It is shown that the lattice of all Lipschitz functions on a normed space $E$ is isomorphic to its…

Let $U\subseteq\mathbb{R}^{n}$ be open and convex. We show that every (not necessarily Lipschitz or strongly) convex function $f:U\to\mathbb{R}$ can be approximated by real analytic convex functions, uniformly on all of $U$. In doing so we…

We prove that subharmonic functions of finite order on finite dimensional real space, bounded from above outside of some asymptotically small sets on spheres, are bounded from above everywhere. It follows that subharmonic functions of…

The paper is devoted to the study of Gromov-Hausdorff convergence and stability of irreversible metric-measure spaces, both in the compact and noncompact cases. While the compact setting is mostly similar to the reversible case developed by…

In this note we provide a full conjugacy and subdifferential calculus for convex convex-composite functions in finite-dimensional space. Our approach, based on infimal convolution and cone-convexity, is straightforward and yields the…

Let $S$ be a non-empty, closed subspace of a locally compact group $G$ that is a subsemigroup of $G$. Suppose that $X, Y$, and $Z$ are Banach lattices that are vector sublattices of the order dual $\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{c}}(S,\mathbb R)^\sim$…
