Weighted cone-volume functionals are introduced for the convex polytopes in $\mathbb{R}^n$. For these functionals, geometric inequalities are proved and the equality conditions are characterized. A variety of corollaries are derived,…

The notion of a valuation on convex bodies is very classical. The notion of a valuation on a class of functions was recently introduced and studied by M. Ludwig and others. We study an explicit relation between continuous valuations on…

We prove a number of results on the geometry associated to the solutions of evolution equations given by first-order differential operators on manifolds. In particular, we consider distance functions associated to a first-order operator,…

In the first part of the paper, comprising section 1 through 6, we introduce a sequence of functions in the tangent bundle TM of any smooth two-dimensional manifold M with smooth Riemannian metric g that correspond to the higher order…

Comparison and localization results for the Lempert function, the Carath\'eodory distance and their infinitesimal forms on strongly pseudoconvex domains are obtained. Related results for visible and strongly complete domains are proved.

This PhD dissertation is concerned with integral geometric inverse problems. The geodesic ray transform is an operator that encodes the line integrals of a function along geodesics. The dissertation establishes many conditions when such…

We study the geometry of $m$-regular domains within the Caffarelli-Nirenberg-Spruck model in terms of barrier functions, envelopes, exhaustion functions, and Jensen measures. We prove among other things that every $m$-hyperconvex domain…

The aim of this paper is to establish strong convergence theorems for a strongly relatively nonexpansive sequence in a smooth and uniformly convex Banach space. Then we employ our results to approximate solutions of the zero point problem…

Slowly divergent geodesics in the moduli space of Riemann surfaces of genus at least 2 are constructed via cyclic branched covers of the torus. Nonergodic examples (i.e. geodesics whose defining quadratic differential has nonergodic…

We show how our recent results on compositions of d.c. functions (and mappings) imply positive results on extensions of d.c. functions (and mappings). Examples answering two natural relevant questions are presented. Two further theorems,…

This paper presents a variational and multisymplectic formulation of both compressible and incompressible models of continuum mechanics on general Riemannian manifolds. A general formalism is developed for non-relativistic first-order…

Any maximal monotone operator can be characterized by a convex function. The family of such convex functions is invariant under a transformation connected with the Fenchel-Legendre conjugation. We prove that there exist a convex…

The generalized divided differences are introduced. They are applied to investigate some properties characterizing generalized higher-order convexity. Among others some support-type property is proved.

Isotropic positive definite functions on spheres play important roles in spatial statistics, where they occur as the correlation functions of homogeneous random fields and star-shaped random particles. In approximation theory, strictly…

The definition of conservative-irreversible functions is extended to smooth manifolds. The local representation of these functions is studied and reveals that not each conservative-irreversible function is given by the weighted product of…

We develop \emph{geometric optimisation} on the manifold of Hermitian positive definite (HPD) matrices. In particular, we consider optimising two types of cost functions: (i) geodesically convex (g-convex); and (ii) log-nonexpansive (LN).…

In functional analysis it is well known that every linear functional defined on the dual of a locally convex vector space which is continuous for the weak topology is the evaluation at a uniquely determined point of the given vector space.…

Over a global field any finite number of central simple algebras of exponent dividing $m$ is split by a common cyclic field extension of degree $m$. We show that the same property holds for function fields of two-dimensional excellent…

This short survey reviews some aspects of spaces of positive-definite self-adjoint linear transformations on R^n and on C^n, including the standard Riemannian metric and the relation with the exponential mapping acting on self-adjoint…

We use the framework of the first-order differential structure in metric measure spaces introduced by Gigli to define a notion of weak solutions to gradient flows of convex, lower semicontinuous and coercive functionals. We prove their…
