This paper demonstrates a duality between the non-robustness of polynomial time dimension and the existence of one-way functions. Polynomial-time dimension (denoted $\mathrm{cdim}_\mathrm{P}$) quantifies the density of information of…
We prove a randomized version of the generalized Urysohn inequality relating mean-width to the other intrinsic volumes. To do this, we introduce a stochastic approximation procedure that sees each convex body K as the limit of intersections…
Discrete Fenchel duality is one of the central issues in discrete convex analysis. The Fenchel-type min-max theorem for a pair of integer-valued M-natural-convex functions generalizes the min-max formulas for polymatroid intersection and…
For a convex lattice polytope $P\subset \mathbb R^d$ of dimension $d$ with vertices in $\mathbb Z^d$, denote by $L(P)$ its discrete volume which is defined as the number of integer points inside $P$. The classical result due to Ehrhart says…

In the field of statistics, many kind of divergence functions have been studied as an amount which measures the discrepancy between two probability distributions. In the differential geometrical approach in statistics (information…

Results on the upper and lower semicontinuity of functionals defined on spaces of convex and more general functions are established. In particular, the following result is obtained. Let $\phi(v; \cdot)$ be the density of the absolutely…
We compute the maximal halfspace depth for a class of permutation-invariant distributions on the probability simplex. The derivations are based on stochastic ordering results that so far were only showed to be relevant for the…
The theory of quasi-arithmetic means is a powerful tool in the study of covariance functions across space-time. In the present study we use quasi-arithmetic functionals to make inferences about the permissibility of averages of functions…
Constructing distribution-free confidence intervals for the median, a classic problem in statistics, has seen numerous solutions in the literature. While coverage validity has received ample attention, less has been explored about interval…
In this paper we extend the refined second-order Poincar\'e inequality for Poisson functionals from a one-dimensional to a multi-dimensional setting. Its proof is based on a multivariate version of the Malliavin-Stein method for normal…
This work is dedicated to foundational aspects of general (nonlinear second order) potential theories and fully nonlinear elliptic PDEs. In particular, we systematically develop the fundamental role played by semiconvex functions as a…
We construct differential algebras in which spaces of (one-dimensional) periodic ultradistributions are embedded. By proving a Schwartz impossibility type result, we show that our embeddings are optimal in the sense of being consistent with…
In recent papers the convexity of quasiarithmetic means was characterized under twice differentiability assumptions. One of the main goals of this paper is to show that the convexity or concavity of a quasiarithmetic mean implies the the…
In this paper functions $f:D\to\mathbb{R}$ satisfying the inequality \[ f\Big(\frac{x+y}{2}\Big)\leq\frac12f(x)+\frac12f(y) +\varphi\Big(\frac{x-y}{2}\Big) \qquad(x,y\in D) \] are studied, where $D$ is a nonempty convex subset of a real…

The M\"obius invariant space $\mathcal{Q}_p$, $0<p<\infty$, consists of functions $f$ which are analytic in the open unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ with $$ \|f\|_{\mathcal{Q}_p}=|f(0)|+\sup_{w\in \D} \left(\int_\D |f'(z)|^2(1-|\sigma_w(z)|^2)^p…
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…
