For each ${\small b\in(0, \infty)}$ we intend to generate a decreasing sequence of subsets $(\mathcal{Y}_{b}^{(n)}) \subset Y_{\mathrm{conc}}$ depending on $b$ such that whenever $n\in\mathbb{N}$, then $\mathcal{A}\cap\mathcal{Y}_{b}^{(n)}%…

We consider the space $C_{\lambda}$ of all continuous interval maps preserving the Lebesgue measure $\lambda$. A continuous function $f\colon~[0,1]\to \mathbb R$ is called Besicovitch if it does not have any finite or infinite unilateral…

Some properties of $m$-density points and density-degree functions are studied. Moreover the following main results are provided: \vskip2mm \begin{itemize} \item {\it Let $\lambda$ be a continuous differential form of degree $h$ in…

We take under consideration Young measures with densities. The notion of density of a Young measure is introduced and illustrated with examples. It is proved that the density of a Young measure is weakly sequentially closed set. In the case…

The Lebesgue property (order-continuity) of a monotone convex function on a solid vector space of measurable functions is characterized in terms of (1) the weak inf-compactness of the conjugate function on the order-continuous dual space,…

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…

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 study the properties of integral functionals induced on $L^1_E (S,\mu)$ by closed convex functions on a Euclidean space $E$. We give sufficient conditions for such integral functions to be strongly rotund (well-posed). We…

We formulate a simple characterization of homogeneous Young measures associated with measurable functions. It is based on the notion of the quasi-Young measure introduced in the previous article published in this Journal. First, homogeneous…

We show a general phenomenon of the constrained functional value for densities satisfying general convexity conditions, which generalizes the observation in Bobkov and Madiman (2011) that the entropy per coordinate in a log-concave random…

In this article we show the following result: if $C$ is an $n$-dimensional convex and compact subset, $f:C\rightarrow[0,\infty)$ is concave, and $\phi:[0,\infty)\rightarrow[0,\infty)$ is a convex function with $\phi(0)=0$, we then…

For a function defined on a convex set in a Euclidean space, midpoint convexity is the property requiring that the value of the function at the midpoint of any line segment is not greater than the average of its values at the endpoints of…

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…

In this work, using Moreau envelopes, we define a complete metric for the set of proper lower semicontinuous convex functions. Under this metric, the convergence of each sequence of convex functions is epi-convergence. We show that the set…

We consider Choquet integrals with respect to dyadic Hausdorff content of non-negative functions which are not necessarily Lebesgue measurable. We study the theory of Lebesgue points. The studies yield convergence results and also a density…

We introduce a weak asymptotic version of nonlinear contraction, termed \emph{asymptotic pointwise contraction}. For a mapping on a metric space, this notion requires the existence of a sequence of functions that dominate the distances…

We prove the following version of the Kreps-Yan theorem. For any norm closed convex cone $C\subset L^\infty$ such that $C\cap L_+^\infty=\{0\}$ and $C\supset -L_+^\infty$, there exists a strictly positive continuous linear functional, whose…

We study the multifractal analysis of a class of equicontractive, self-similar measures of finite type, whose support is an interval. Finite type is a property weaker than the open set condition, but stronger than the weak open set…

In the present article we provide a sufficient condition for a closed set F in R^d to have the following property which we call c-removability: Whenever a function f:R^d->R is locally convex on the complement of F, it is convex on the whole…

A recent article Li and Lv considered contraction of convex hypersurfaces by certain nonhomogeneous functions of curvature, showing convergence to points in finite time in certain cases where the speed is a function of a degree-one…
