We establish explicit bounds on the convex distance between the distribution of a vector of smooth functionals of a Gaussian field, and that of a normal vector with a positive definite covariance matrix. Our bounds are commensurate to the…

The BMV conjecture states that for $n\times n$ Hermitian matrices $A$ and $B$ the function $f_{A,B}(t)=trace{\, } e^{tA+B}$ is exponentially convex. Recently the BMV conjecture was proved by Herbert Stahl. The proof of Herbert Stahl is…

In this series of studies on Cauchy's function $f(z)$ ($z=x+iy$) and its integral $J[f(z)]\equiv (2\pi i)^{-1}\oint_C f(t)dt/(t-z)$ taken along a Jordan contour $C$, the aim is to investigate their comprehensive properties over the entire…

Let $n$ and $k$ be nonnegative integers such that $1\le k\le n+1$. The convex cone $\mathcal{F}_+^{k:n}$ of all functions $f$ on an arbitrary interval $I\subseteq\mathbb{R}$ whose derivatives $f^{(j)}$ of orders $j=k-1,\dots,n$ are…

In this paper we study the joint convexity/concavity of the trace functions \[ \Psi_{p,q,s}(A,B)=\text{Tr}(B^{\frac{q}{2}}K^*A^{p}KB^{\frac{q}{2}})^s,~~p,q,s\in \mathbb{R}, \] where $A$ and $B$ are positive definite matrices and $K$ is any…

Let $U\subseteq\mathbb{R}^{n}$ be open and convex. We show that every (not necessarily Lipschitz or strongly) convex function $f:U\to\mathbb{R}$ can be approximated by real analytic convex functions, uniformly on all of $U$. In doing so we…

We define in the space of n by m matrices of rank n, n less or equal than m, the condition Riemannian structure as follows: For a given matrix A the tangent space of A is equipped with the Hermitian inner product obtained by multiplying the…

In this paper we give an integral representation of an $n$-convex function $f$ in general case without additional assumptions on function $f$. We prove that any $n$-convex function can be represented as a sum of two $(n+1)$-times monotone…

We investigate the distance function $\boldsymbol{\delta}_{K}^{\phi}$ from an arbitrary closed subset $ K $ of a~finite-dimensional Banach space $ (\mathbf{R}^{n}, \phi) $, equipped with a uniformly convex $\mathcal{C}^{2}$-norm $ \phi $.…

Convex regression is the problem of fitting a convex function to a data set consisting of input-output pairs. We present a new approach to this problem called spectrahedral regression, in which we fit a spectrahedral function to the data,…

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…

A closed set of a Euclidean space is said to be Chebyshev if every point in the space has one and only one closest point in the set. Although the situation is not settled in infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces, in 1932 Bunt showed that in…

This work concerns the study of the subdifferential of the integral functional $$ E_f(x)=\int_{T} f(t,x)d\mu(t), $$ where $f$ is a (not necessarily convex) normal integrand, $({T},\mathcal{A},\mu)$ is a $\sigma$-finite measure space, while…

We investigate how the type of Convexity of the Core function affects the Csisz\'{a}r $f$-divergence functional. A general treatment for the type of convexity has been considered and the associated perspective functions have been studied.…

The intention of this survey to collect in one paper many recent results and advances related with Bergman type projection acting in various spaces of analytic functions in several complex variables in the unit ball, tubular domains over…

We apply upper and lower compensated convex transforms, which are `tight' one-sided approximations of a given function, to the extraction of fine geometric singularities from semiconvex/semiconcave functions and DC-functions in…

In this paper, we study a part of approximation theory that presents the conditions under which a \Ceby\sev set in a Banach space is convex. To do so, we use Gateaux differentiability of the distance function.

We study the Riemannian distance function from a fixed point (a point-wise target) of Euclidean space in the presence of a compact obstacle bounded by a smooth hypersurface. First, we show that such a function is locally semiconcave with a…

We prove the Fundamental Gap Conjecture, which states that the difference between the first two Dirichlet eigenvalues (the spectral gap) of a Schr\"odinger operator with convex potential and Dirichlet boundary data on a convex domain is…

For convex univalent functions we give instances where the sharp bound for various coefficient functionals are identical to those for the corresponding bound for the inverse function. We give instances where the sharp bounds differ and also…
