We obtain new concavity results, up to a suitable transformation, for a class of quasi-linear equations in a convex domain involving the $p$-Laplace operator and a general nonlinearity satisfying concavity type assumptions. This provides an…

We show that an information-theoretic property of Shannon's entropy power, known as concavity of entropy power, can be fruitfully employed to prove inequalities in sharp form. In particular, the concavity of entropy power implies the…

We mainly establish a monotonicity property between some special Riemann sums of a convex function $f$ on $[a,b]$, which in particular yields that $\frac{b-a}{n+1}\sum_{i=0}^n f\left(a+i\frac{b-a}{n}\right)$ is decreasing while…

Using a transference result, several inequalities of approximation by entire functions of exponential type in $\mathcal{C}(\mathbf{R})$, the class of bounded uniformly continuous functions defined on $\mathbf{R}:=\left( -\infty ,+\infty…

We review the function theoretical properties of the Mittag-Leffler function $E_{a,b}\left( z\right) $ in a self-contained manner, but also add new results; more than half is new!

First we prove some kernel representations for the covariance of two functions taken on the same random variable and deduce kernel representations for some functionals of a continuous one-dimensional measure. Then we apply these formulas to…

Let K be a random variable following a truncated exponential distribution. Such distributions are described by a single parameter here denoted by $\gamma$. The determination of $\gamma$ by Maximum Likelihood methods leads to a…

Eigenvalues inequalities involving (log) convex/concav functions and Hermitian matrices, positive unital maps are considered. Simple proofs of Bhatia-Kittaneh inequality and Naimark dilation theorem are given.

We first introduce and derive some basic properties of a two-parameters family of one-sided Levy processes. Their Laplace exponents are given in terms of the Pochhammer symbol. This family includes, in a limit case, the family of Brownian…

We prove new entropy inequalities for log concave and s-concave functions that strengthen and generalize recently established reverse log Sobolev and Poincare inequalities for such functions. This leads naturally to the concept of…

We analyze the role played by $n$-convexity for the fulfillment of a series of linear functional inequalities that extend the Hornich-Hlawka functional inequality, $f\left( x\right) +f\left( y\right) +f\left( z\right) +f\left( x+y+z\right)…

Jensen's operator inequality for convexifiable functions is obtained. This result contains classical Jensen's operator inequality as a particular case. As a consequence, a new refinement and a reverse of Young's inequality is given.

There exist two major subclasses in the class of superquadratic functions, one comprises concave and decreasing functions, while the other consists of convex and monotone increasing functions. Leveraging this distinction, we introduce…

The paper deals with the determination of integral functional quality for control system of generalized linear dynamic object with exponential activation function by solving the inverse problem of dynamic programming. The obtained…

In this paper, we introduce a new concept of generalized convexity for E-differentiable vector optimization problems. Namely, the notion of exponentially E-invexity is defined. Further, some properties and results of exponentially E-invex…

In this note prove the following Berwald-type inequality, showing that for any integrable log-concave function $f:\mathbb R^n\rightarrow[0,\infty)$ and any concave function $h:L\rightarrow\mathbb [0,\infty)$, where $L$ is the epigraph of…

In [16], under mild conditions, a Wiener-Hopf type factorization is derived for the exponential functional of proper L\'evy processes. In this paper, we extend this factorization by relaxing a finite moment assumption as well as by…

The eventual concavity properties are useful to characterize geometric properties of the final state of solutions to parabolic equations. In this paper we give characterizations of the eventual concavity properties of the heat flow for…

Let $Z$ be an $n$-dimensional Gaussian vector and let $f: \mathbb R^n \to \mathbb R$ be a convex function. We show that: $$\mathbb P \left( f(Z) \leq \mathbb E f(Z) -t\sqrt{ {\rm Var} f(Z)} \right) \leq \exp(-ct^2),$$ for all $t>1$, where…

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,…
