In this paper, we prove an operator version of the Jensen's inequality and its converse for $h$-convex functions. We provide a refinement of the Jensen type inequality for $h$-convex functions. Moreover, we prove the Hermite-Hadamard's type…

The main result states that every convex set-valued function defined on a real interval with compact values in a locally convex space, admits an affine selection. In the case if the target space is a real line and the values are closed real…

Given any ${\bf{a}}: = \left( {a_1 ,a_2 , \ldots ,a_n } \right)$ and ${\bf{b}}: = \left( {b_1 ,b_2 , \ldots ,b_n } \right)$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$. The $\textbf{n}$-fold convex function defined on $\left[ {{\bf{a}},{\bf{b}}} \right]$,…

Mercer inequality for convex functions is a variant of Jensen's inequality, with an operator version that is still valid without operator convexity. This paper is two folded. First, we present a Mercer-type inequality for operators without…

We discuss a rather general condition under which the inequality of Jensen works for certain convex combinations of points not all in the domain of convexity of the function under attention. Based on this fact, an extension of the…

The first two authors of this paper asserted in Lemma 4 of "New Farkas-type constraint qualifications in convex infinite programming" (DOI: 10.1051/cocv:2007027) that a given reverse convex inequality is consequence of a given convex system…

In this paper we establish a gap theorem for the complex geometry of smoothly bounded convex domains which informally says that if the complex geometry near the boundary is close to the complex geometry of the unit ball, then the domain…

In this paper we show the following result: if C is an n-dimensional 0-symmetric convex compact set, $f:C\rightarrow[0,1)$ is concave, and $g:[0,1)\rightarrow[0,1)$ is not identically zero, convex, with g(0)=0, then \[ \frac{1}{|C|}\int_C…

Jensen's operator inequality for convexifiable functions is obtained. This result contains classical Jensen's operator inequality as a particular case. As a consequence, a new refinement and a reverse of Young's inequality is given.

For a broad class of integral functionals defined on the space of $n$-dimensional convex bodies, we establish necessary and sufficient conditions for monotonicity, and necessary conditions for the validity of a Brunn-Minkowski type…

A function $f:[a,b] \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ is called $(p,a,b)$-convex if $f$ is $p$ times continuously differentiable, $f^{(p)}$ is convex and increasing, and $f^{(k)}(a)=0$ for all $k=1,\ldots,p$ where $f^{(j)}$ is the $j$th derivative of…

Let C be convex, compact, with nonempty interior and h be Legendre with domain C, continuous on C. We prove that h is Bregman if and only if it is strictly convex on C and C is a polytope. This provides insights on sequential convergence of…

A key idea in convex optimization theory is to use well-structured affine functions to approximate general functions, leading to impactful developments in conjugate functions and convex duality theory. This raises the question: what are the…

A subequation on an open subset $X\subset \mathbb R^n$ is a subset $F$ of the space of $2$-jets on $X$ with certain properties. A smooth function is said to be $F$-subharmonic if all of its $2$-jets lie in $F$, and using the viscosity…

We introduce the notion of Krein-operator convexity in the setting of Krein spaces. We present an indefinite version of the Jensen operator inequality on Krein spaces by showing that if $(\mathscr{H},J)$ is a Krein space, $\mathcal{U}$ is…

Given a continuous function $\phi$ defined on a domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^m\times\mathbb{R}^n$, we show that if a Pr\'ekopa-type result holds for $\phi+\psi$ for any non-negative convex function $\psi$ on $\Omega$, then $\phi$ must be…

In this note, as a particular case of a more general result, we obtain the following theorem: Let $\Omega\subseteq {\bf R}^n$ be a non-empty bounded open set and let $f:\overline {\Omega}\to {\bf R}^n$ be a continuous function which is…

We introduce a new operation between nonnegative integrable functions on $\mathbb{R} ^n$, that we call geometric combination; it is obtained via a mass transportation approach, playing with inverse distribution functions. The main feature…

In the spirit of Kobayashi's applications of methods of invariant metrics to questions of projective geometry, we introduce a projective analogue of the complex squeezing function. Using Frankel's work, we prove that for convex domains it…

In this paper, is introduced a new proposal of resolvent for equilibrium problems in terms of the Busemann's function. A great advantage of this new proposal is that, in addition to be a natural extension of the proposal in the linear…
