A quantitative version of the isoperimetric inequality : the anisotropic case

Luca Esposito, Nicola Fusco, Cristina Trombetti (2005)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

We state and prove a stability result for the anisotropic version of the isoperimetric inequality. Namely if E is a set with small anisotropic isoperimetric deficit, then E is “close” to the Wulff shape set.

A Relation between the Weyl Group W(e8) and Eight-Line Arrangements on a Real Projective Plane

Fukui, Tetsuo, Sekiguchi, Jiro (2007)

Serdica Journal of Computing

The paper has been presented at the 12th International Conference on Applications of Computer Algebra, Varna, Bulgaria, June, 2006.The Weyl group W(E8) acts on the con guration space of systems of labelled eight lines on a real projective plane. With a system of eight lines with a certain condition, a diagram consisting of ten roots of the root system of type E8 is associated. We have already shown the existence of a W(E8)-equivariant map of the totality of such diagrams to the set of systems of...

A rough curvature-dimension condition for metric measure spaces

Anca-Iuliana Bonciocat (2014)

Open Mathematics

We introduce and study a rough (approximate) curvature-dimension condition for metric measure spaces, applicable especially in the framework of discrete spaces and graphs. This condition extends the one introduced by Karl-Theodor Sturm, in his 2006 article On the geometry of metric measure spaces II, to a larger class of (possibly non-geodesic) metric measure spaces. The rough curvature-dimension condition is stable under an appropriate notion of convergence, and stable under discretizations as...

A second order η -approximation method for constrained optimization problems involving second order invex functions

Tadeusz Antczak (2009)

Applications of Mathematics

A new approach for obtaining the second order sufficient conditions for nonlinear mathematical programming problems which makes use of second order derivative is presented. In the so-called second order η -approximation method, an optimization problem associated with the original nonlinear programming problem is constructed that involves a second order η -approximation of both the objective function and the constraint function constituting the original problem. The equivalence between the nonlinear...

A selection theorem of Helly type and its applications

Ehrhard Behrends, Kazimierz Nikodem (1995)

Studia Mathematica

We prove an abstract selection theorem for set-valued mappings with compact convex values in a normed space. Some special cases of this result as well as its applications to separation theory and Hyers-Ulam stability of affine functions are also given.
