We introduce a class of functionals on the space of rapidly decreasing sequences $s$, called $\mathcal{F}_s$-functionals, defined as decomposable sums of quadratic and convex terms with quadratic growth. We prove that such functionals…

A cornerstone in convex analysis is the crucial relationship between functions and their convex conjugate via the Fenchel-Young inequality. In this dual variable setting, the maximal monotonicity of the contact set $ \big\{(x,y) \ \big| \…

We derive an analytical density functional for the single-site entanglement of the one-dimensional homogeneous Hubbard model, by means of an approximation to the linear entropy. We show that this very simple density functional reproduces…

This article contains a self-contained proof of the stability under convolution of the space of resurgent functions associated with a closed discrete subset of the complex plane (the set of possible singularities), under the assumption that…

Using approximation by continuous functions we prove the following statements to types of tightness in a space $Q_p(X, \mathbb{R})$ of all quasicontinuous real-valued functions with the topology $\tau_p$ of pointwise convergence: the…

Taking as model the attractor of an iterated function system consisting of phi-contractions on a complete and bounded metric space, we introduce the set-theoretic concept of family of functions having attractor. We prove that, given such a…

In this paper, based on concepts of convex sets and convex functions, we introduce new concepts of functions, Young functions, strong Young functions and Orlicz functions by relaxing definitions of functions, Young functions, strong Young…

We study a new discretization of the Gaussian curvature for polyhedral surfaces. This discrete Gaussian curvature is defined on each conical singularity of a polyhedral surface as the quotient of the angle defect and the area of the Voronoi…

We prove new entropy inequalities for log concave and s-concave functions that strengthen and generalize recently established reverse log Sobolev and Poincare inequalities for such functions. This leads naturally to the concept of…

For a locally convex vector space (l.c.v.s.) $E$ and an absolutely convex neighborhood $V$ of zero, a bounded subset $A$ of $E$ is said to be $V$-dentable (respectively, $V$-f-dentable) if for any $\epsilon>0$ there exists an $x\in A$ so…

Let $(\mathcal{X}, \rho, \mu)$ be a metric measure space of homogeneous type which supports a certain Poincar\'e inequality. Denote by the symbol $\mathcal{C}_{\mathrm{c}}^\ast(\mathcal{X})$ the space of all continuous functions $f$ with…

Let $\mathscr J$ be the space of inner functions of finite entropy endowed with the topology of stable convergence. We prove that an inner function $F \in \mathscr J$ possesses a radial limit (and in fact, a minimal fine limit) in the unit…

Reeb spaces of (continuous) real-valued functions on (nice) topological spaces are the spaces whose underlying sets consist of all connected components (contours) of their level sets and seen naturally as quotient spaces of the spaces. They…

No functions class for general measurable sets classes are known whose functions have the property of differentiability of integrals associated to such sets classes. In this paper,we give some subspaces of $L^s$ with $1<s<\infty$, whose…

Let $\mathbb{S}^{d-1}$ denote the unit sphere in Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq 2$, equipped with surface measure $\sigma_{d-1}$. An instance of our main result concerns the regularity of solutions of the convolution equation \[…

The piecewise-concave function may be used to approximate a wide range of other functions to arbitrary precision over a bounded set. In this short paper, this property is proven for three function classes: (a) the multivariate twice…

Piecewise affine functions on subsets of $\mathbb R^m$ were studied in \cite{Ovchinnikov:02,Aliprantis:06a,Aliprantis:07a,Aliprantis:07}. In this paper we study a more general concept of a locally piecewise affine function. We characterize…

We denote the local ``little" Lipschitz constant of a function $f: {{\mathbb R}}\to { {\mathbb R}}$ by $ {\mathrm{lip}}f$. In this paper we settle the following question: For which sets $E {\subset} { {\mathbb R}}$ is it possible to find a…

We introduce notions of concavity for functions on balanced polyhedral spaces, and we show that concave functions on such spaces satisfy several strong continuity properties.
