This paper studies the convexity properties of nonsmooth extended-real-valued weakly convex functions, a class of functions that is central to modern optimization and its applications. We establish new characterizations of convexity using…
A generalised trapezoid inequality for convex functions and applications for quadrature rules are given. A refinement and a counterpart result for the Hermite-Hadamard inequalities are obtained and some inequalities for pdf's and…
In this paper, we prove Newton-Maclaurin type inequalities for functions obtained by linear combination of two neighboring primary symmetry functions, which is a generalization of the classical Newton-Maclaurin inequality.
This paper examines various aspects related to the Cauchy functional equation $f(x+y)=f(x)+f(y)$, a fundamental equation in the theory of functional equations. In particular, it considers its solvability and its stability relative to…
On the set $\mathcal M$ of mean functions the symmetric mean of $M$ with respect to mean $M_0$ can be defined in several ways. The first one is related to the group structure on $\mathcal M$ and the second one is defined trough Gauss'…
The Generalized Bessel Function (GBF) extends the single variable Bessel function to several dimensions and indices in a nontrivial manner. Two-dimensional GBFs have been studied extensively in the literature and have found application in…
There exist two major subclasses in the class of superquadratic functions, one comprises concave and decreasing functions, while the other consists of convex and monotone increasing functions. Leveraging this distinction, we introduce…
Given an affine variety X and a finite dimensional vector space of regular functions L on X, we associate a convex body to (X, L) such that its volume is responsible for the number of solutions of a generic system of functions from L. This…
A mathematical model is a function taking certain arguments and returning a theoretical prediction of a feature of a physical system. The arguments to the mathematical model can be split into two groups; (a) controllable variables of the…
We establish general "collapse to the mean" principles that provide conditions under which a law-invariant functional reduces to an expectation. In the convex setting, we retrieve and sharpen known results from the literature. However, our…
The generalized weighted mean operator $\mathbf{M}^{g}_{w}$ is given by $$[\mathbf{M}^{g}_{w}f](x)= g^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{W(x)}\int_{0}^{x}w(t)g(f(t))\,\mathrm{d}t\right),$$ with $$W(x)=\int_{0}^{x} w(s)\,\mathrm{d}s, \quad \textrm{for} x…
Let $\BS_1,...,\BS_n$ be independent identically distributed random variables each having the standardized Bernoulli distribution with parameter $p\in(0,1)$. Let $m_*(p):=(1+p+2p^2)/(2\sqrt{p-p^2}+4p^2)$ if $0<p\le 1/2$ and $m_*(p):=1$ if…

We establish a sub-convexity estimate for Rankin-Selberg $L$-functions in the combined level aspect, using the circle method. If $p$ and $q$ are distinct prime numbers, $f$ and $g$ are non-exceptional newforms (modular or Maass) for the…
Polynomial sequence ${P_m}_{m\geq0}$ is $q$-logarithmically concave if $P_{m}^2-P_{m+1}P_{m-1}$ is a polynomial with nonnegative coefficients for any $m\geq{1}$. We introduce an analogue of this notion for formal power series whose…

The matrix convexity and the matrix monotony of a real $C^1$ function $f$ on $(0,\infty)$ are characterized in terms of the conditional negative or positive definiteness of the Loewner matrices associated with $f$, $tf(t)$, and $t^2f(t)$.…
