There is a vast theory of the asymptotic behavior of orthogonal polynomials with respect to a measure on $\mathbb{R}$ and its applications to Jacobi matrices. That theory has an obvious affine invariance and a very special role for…

Let $S=\{x_1,x_2,\dots,x_n\}$ be a set of distinct positive integers, and let $f$ be an arithmetical function. The GCD matrix $(S)_f$ on $S$ associated with $f$ is defined as the $n\times n$ matrix having $f$ evaluated at the greatest…

In this paper, strongly $(\alpha,T)$-convex functions, i.e., functions $f:D\to \R$ satisfying the functional inequality $$ f(tx+(1-t)y)\leq tf(x)+(1-t)f(y)-t\alpha\big((1-t)(x-y)\big)-(1-t)\alpha\big(t(y-x)\big)$$ for $x,y\in D$ and $t\in…

Let $\mu_p(A,B,t)=(tA^p+(1-t)B^p)^{1/p}$ denote the weighted power mean between positive operators $A$ and $B$. We show that the function $t\to \|A-\mu_p(A,B,t)\|_2$ is monotonically decreasing whenever $1/2 \leq p \leq 1$. Hence showing…

Let $\mu$ be a probability measure on $\mathbb{R}$. We give conditions on the Fourier transform of its density for functionals of the form $H(a)=\int_{\mathbb{R}^n}h(\langle a,x\rangle)\mu^n(dx)$ to be Schur monotone. As applications, we…

We prove a moment majorization principle for matrix-valued functions with domain $\{-1,1\}^{m}$, $m\in\mathbb{N}$. The principle is an inequality between higher-order moments of a non-commutative multilinear polynomial with different random…

This paper is concerned with the asymptotic behavior of sums of terms which are a test function f evaluated at successive increments of a discretely sampled semimartingale. Typically the test function is a power function (when the power is…

We describe all linear operators which maps $n-1$-dimensional simplex of idempotent measures to itself. Such operators divided to two classes: the first class contains all $n\times n$-matrices with non-negative entries which has at least…

We introduce a quite large class of functions (including the exponential function and the power functions with exponent greater than one), and show that for any element $f$ of this function class, a self-adjoint element $a$ of a…

In this present investigation, we found a set of sufficient conditions to be imposed on the parameters of the Fox H-functions which allow us to conclude that it is non-negative. As applications, various new facts regarding the Fox-Wright…

We analyze and characterize maximal monotonicity of linear relations (set-valued operators with linear graphs). An important tool in our study are Fitzpatrick functions. The results obtained partially extend work on linear and at most…

We consider the problem of characterizing all functions $f$ defined on the set of integers modulo $n$ with the property that an average of some $n$th roots of unity determined by $f$ is always an algebraic integer. Examples of such…

In this paper, we obtain the subadditivity inequality of strongly operator convex functions on $(0, \infty)$ and $(-\infty,0)$. Applying the properties of operator convex functions, we deduce the subadditivity property of operator monotone…

We follow a stream of the history of positive matrices and positive functionals, as applied to algebraic sums of squares decompositions, with emphasis on the interaction between classical moment problems, function theory of one or several…

We consider nonconvex real valued functions whose truncations are either quasiconvex or even convex starting with a certain level. Among them, the $C^2$-smooth functions whose level sets are all completely contained in the positive definite…

The convolution properties are discussed for the complex-valued harmonic functions in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ constructed from the harmonic shearing of the analytic function $\phi(z):=\int_0^z…

In this paper two identities involving a function defined by the complete elliptic integrals of the first and second kinds are proved. Some functional inequalities and elementary estimates for this function are also derived from the…

In this note we provide a full conjugacy and subdifferential calculus for convex convex-composite functions in finite-dimensional space. Our approach, based on infimal convolution and cone-convexity, is straightforward and yields the…

Rigorous mathematical foundations of density functional theory are revisited, with some use of infinitesimal (nonstandard) methods. A thorough treatment is given of basic properties of internal energy and ground-state energy functionals…

In a multi-index model with $k$ index vectors, the input variables are transformed by taking inner products with the index vectors. A transfer function $f: \mathbb{R}^k \to \mathbb{R}$ is applied to these inner products to generate the…
