The main theorem of this paper states that the c-convexity and the alternative c-convexity are equivalent if and only if the cost function c satisfies MTW condition. The alternative c-convex function is an analogy of the definition of the…

We simplify the geometric interpretation of the weak Ma-Trudinger-Wang condition for regularity in optimal transportation and provide a geometric proof of the global c-convexity of locally $c$-convex potentials when the cost function $c$ is…

In this paper, we study the Ma-Trudinger-Wang (MTW) conditions for cost functions $c$ which are of the form $c=l\circ d$, where $d$ is a Riemannian distance function with constant sectional curvature. In this case, the MTW conditions are…

In this paper we characterize quasi-contraction, stable and convergent weighted conditional type (WCT) operators on $L^p(\mu)$. Indeed we provide equivalent conditions for quasi-contraction WCT operators. Also, we prove that convergence,…

We identify a condition for regularity of optimal transport maps that requires only three derivatives of the cost function, for measures given by densities that are only bounded above and below. This new condition is equivalent to the weak…

This note concerns the relationship between conditions on cost functions and domains and the convexity properties of potentials in optimal transportation and the continuity of the associated optimal mappings. In particular, we prove that if…

We consider the split convex feasibility problem in a fixed point setting. Motivated by the well-known CQ-method of Byrne (2002), we define an abstract andweber transform which applies to more general operators than the metric projection.…

In [B1, Theorem 2.36] we proved the equivalence of six conditions on a continuous function f on an interval. These conditions define a subset of the set of operator convex functions, whose elements are called strongly operator convex. Two…

Multi-marginal optimal transport plans are concentrated on c-splitting sets. It is known that, similar to the two-marginal case, c-splitting sets are c-cyclically monotone. Within a suitable framework, the converse implication was very…

Consider additive functionals of a Markov chain $W_k$, with stationary (marginal) distribution and transition function denoted by $\pi$ and $Q$, say $S_n=g(W_1)+...+g(W_n)$, where $g$ is square integrable and has mean 0 with respect to…

We show that for a convex function the following, rather modest conditions, are equivalent to monotonicity under local operations and classical communication. The conditions are: 1)invariance under local unitaries, 2) invariance under…

We give a sufficient and necessary condition for a probability measure $\mu$ on the real line to satisfy the logarithmic Sobolev inequality for convex functions. The condition is expressed in terms of the unique left-continuous and…

Sufficient conditions are identified under which the value function and the optimal strategy of a Markov decision process (MDP) are even and quasi-convex in the state. The key idea behind these conditions is the following. First, sufficient…

The two-functional conjecture says that if a function f analytic and univalent in the unit disk maximizes Re{L} and Re{M} for two continuous linear functionals L and M, L is not equal to cM for any c>0, then f is a rotation of the Koebe…

We are interested in the cost-convex potentials in optimal mass transport theory, and we show by direct and geometric arguments the equivalence between cost-subdifferentials and ordinary subdifferentials of cost-convex functions, under the…

The average cost optimality is known to be a challenging problem for partially observable stochastic control, with few results available beyond the finite state, action, and measurement setup, for which somewhat restrictive conditions are…

The two-loop O(g^4 mt^2/mw^2) corrections are incorporated in the theoretical calculation of MW, sin^2 theta_MSbar(MZ), and sin^2 theta_eff, as functions of MH. The analysis is carried out in a previously proposed MSbar formulation and two…

For a class of discrete quasi convex functions called semi-strictly quasi M$^\natural$-convex functions, we investigate fundamental issues relating to minimization, such as optimality condition by local optimality, minimizer cut property,…

Syntactic obligations are a fragment of LTL formulas that translate to deterministic weak $\omega$-automata (DWA). We show that syntactic obligations can be very efficiently converted to minimal DWA represented using multi-terminal binary…

In this paper, we extend our convexity theory for $C^2$ cost functions in optimal transportation to more general generating functions, which were originally introduced by the second author to extend the framework of optimal transportation…
