It is known that a real function $f$ is convex if and only if the set $$\mathrm{E}(f)=\{(x,y)\in\mathbb{R}\times\mathbb{R};\ f(x)\leq y\},$$ the epigraph of $f$ is a convex set in $\mathbb{R}^2$. We state an extension of this result for…

We consider the nonconvex set $\mathcal S_n = \{(x,X,z): X = x x^T, \; x (1-z) =0,\; x \geq 0,\; z \in \{0,1\}^n\}$, which is closely related to the feasible region of several difficult nonconvex optimization problems such as the best…

The state space of an operator system of $n$-by-$n$ matrices has, in a sense, many normal cones. Merely this convex geometrical property implies smoothness qualities and a clustering property of exposed faces. The latter holds since each…

We prove an abstract criterion that a surjective convolution operator in spaces of analytic functions on convex subsets of the complex plane has a continuous linear right inverse. Considered convex sets have a countable neighborhood basis…

Soliton time-delays and the semiclassical limit for soliton S-matrices are calculated for non-simply laced Affine Toda Field Theories. The phase shift is written as a sum over bilinears on the soliton conserved charges. The results apply to…

We study the convex hull of $SO(n)$, thought of as the set of $n\times n$ orthogonal matrices with unit determinant, from the point of view of semidefinite programming. We show that the convex hull of $SO(n)$ is doubly spectrahedral, i.e.…

Let $K\subseteq{\mathbb R}^n$ be a convex semialgebraic set. The semidefinite extension degree ${\mathrm{sxdeg}}(K)$ of $K$ is the smallest number $d$ such that $K$ is a linear image of an intersection of finitely many spectrahedra, each of…

We consider a general conic mixed-binary set where each homogeneous conic constraint $j$ involves an affine function of independent continuous variables and an epigraph variable associated with a nonnegative function, $f_j$, of common…

We consider a class of tridiagonal operators induced by not necessary pseudoergodic biinfinite sequences. Using only elementary techniques we prove that the numerical range of such operators is contained in the convex hull of the union of…

The simplest way to generate a lattice of convex sets is to consider an initial set of points and draw segments, triangles, and any convex hull from it, then intersect them to obtain new points, and so forth. The result is an infinite…

The standard convex closed hull of a set is defined as the intersection of all images, under the action of a group of rigid motions, of a half-space containing the given set. In this paper we propose a generalisation of this classical…

Arithmetic automata recognize infinite words of digits denoting decompositions of real and integer vectors. These automata are known expressive and efficient enough to represent the whole set of solutions of complex linear constraints…

Convex geometry is a closure space $(G,\phi)$ with the anti-exchange property. A classical result of Edelman and Jamison (1985) claims that every finite convex geometry is a join of several linear sub-geometries, and the smallest number of…

We study the convex hull of the graph of a quadratic function $f(\mathbf{x})=\sum_{ij\in E}x_ix_j$, where the sum is over the edge set of a graph $G$ with vertex set $\{1,\dots,n\}$. Using an approach proposed by Gupte et al. (Discrete…

Computation of the vertices of the convex hull of a set $S$ of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R} ^m$ is a fundamental problem in computational geometry, optimization, machine learning and more. We present "All Vertex Triangle Algorithm" (AVTA), a…

Generally-unbounded infinitesimal generators are studied in the context of operator topology. Beginning with the definition of seminorm, the concept of locally convex topological vector space is introduced as well as the concept of…

Let X be a finite set of complex numbers and let A be a normal operator with spectrum X that acts on a separable Hilbert space H. Relative to a fixed orthonormal basis e_1,e_2, ... for H, A gives rise to a matrix whose diagonal is a…

We introduce the notion of a Tits arrangement on a convex open cone as a special case of (infinite) simplicial arrangements. Such an object carries a simplicial structure similar to the geometric representation of Coxeter groups. The…

We study the convex hull of a set $S\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ defined by three quadratic inequalities. A simple way of generating inequalities valid on $S$ is to take nonnegative linear combinations of the defining inequalities of $S$. We call…

We introduce the notion of Krein-operator convexity in the setting of Krein spaces. We present an indefinite version of the Jensen operator inequality on Krein spaces by showing that if $(\mathscr{H},J)$ is a Krein space, $\mathcal{U}$ is…
