Extremal sections of complex $l_{p}$ -balls, 0 < p ≤ 2

Alexander Koldobsky, Marisa Zymonopoulou (2003)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We study the extremal volume of central hyperplane sections of complex n-dimensional $l_{p}$ -balls with 0 < p ≤ 2. We show that the minimum corresponds to hyperplanes orthogonal to vectors ξ = (ξ¹,...,ξⁿ) ∈ ℂⁿ with |ξ¹| = ... = |ξⁿ|, and the maximum corresponds to hyperplanes orthogonal to vectors with only one non-zero coordinate.

Convex integration with constraints and applications to phase transitions and partial differential equations

Stefan Müller, Vladimír Šverák (1999)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We study solutions of first order partial differential relations $D u \in K$ , where $u : Ω \subset ℝ^{n} \to ℝ^{m}$ is a Lipschitz map and $K$ is a bounded set in $m \times n$ matrices, and extend Gromov’s theory of convex integration in two ways. First, we allow for additional constraints on the minors of $D u$ and second we replace Gromov’s $P$ −convex hull by the (functional) rank-one convex hull. The latter can be much larger than the former and this has important consequences for the existence of ‘wild’ solutions to elliptic systems. Our...

Similarity:

If φ: [0,∞) → [0,∞) is a convex function with φ(0) = 0 and conjugate function φ*, the inequality $x y \leq ε φ (x) + C_{ε} φ * (y)$ is shown to hold true for every ε ∈ (0,∞) if and only if φ* satisfies the Δ₂-condition.

Minimal multi-convex projections

Grzegorz Lewicki, Michael Prophet (2007)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We say that a function from $X = C^{L} [0, 1]$ is k-convex (for k ≤ L) if its kth derivative is nonnegative. Let P denote a projection from X onto V = Πₙ ⊂ X, where Πₙ denotes the space of algebraic polynomials of degree less than or equal to n. If we want P to leave invariant the cone of k-convex functions (k ≤ n), we find that such a demand is impossible to fulfill for nearly every k. Indeed, only for k = n-1 and k = n does such a projection exist. So let us consider instead a more general “shape”...

The Spaces of Closed Convex Sets in Euclidean Spaces with the Fell Topology

Katsuro Sakai, Zhongqiang Yang (2007)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

Let $C o n v_{F} (ℝ ⁿ)$ be the space of all non-empty closed convex sets in Euclidean space ℝ ⁿ endowed with the Fell topology. We prove that $C o n v_{F} (ℝ ⁿ) \approx ℝ ⁿ \times Q$ for every n > 1 whereas $C o n v_{F} (ℝ) \approx ℝ \times$ .

Poincaré Inequalities and Moment Maps

Bo’az Klartag (2013)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Similarity:

We discuss a method for obtaining Poincaré-type inequalities on arbitrary convex bodies in $ℝ^{n}$ . Our technique involves a dual version of Bochner’s formula and a certain moment map, and it also applies to some non-convex sets. In particular, we generalize the central limit theorem for convex bodies to a class of non-convex domains, including the unit balls of $ℓ_{p}$ -spaces in $ℝ^{n}$ for $0 < p < 1$ .

Product property for capacities in $ℂ^{N}$

Mirosław Baran, Leokadia Bialas-Ciez (2012)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

The paper deals with logarithmic capacities, an important tool in pluripotential theory. We show that a class of capacities, which contains the L-capacity, has the following product property: $C_{ν} (E ₁ \times E ₂) = m i n (C_{ν ₁} (E ₁), C_{ν ₂} (E ₂))$ , where $E_{j}$ and $ν_{j}$ are respectively a compact set and a norm in $ℂ^{N_{j}}$ (j = 1,2), and ν is a norm in $ℂ^{N ₁ + N ₂}$ , ν = ν₁⊕ₚ ν₂ with some 1 ≤ p ≤ ∞. For a convex subset E of $ℂ^{N}$ , denote by C(E) the standard L-capacity and by $ω_{E}$ the minimal width of E, that is, the minimal Euclidean distance between two supporting hyperplanes...

On the ψ₂-behaviour of linear functionals on isotropic convex bodies

G. Paouris (2005)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

The slicing problem can be reduced to the study of isotropic convex bodies K with $d i a m (K) \leq c \sqrt n L_{K}$ , where $L_{K}$ is the isotropic constant. We study the ψ₂-behaviour of linear functionals on this class of bodies. It is proved that ${| | ⟨ \cdot, θ ⟩ | |}_{ψ ₂} \leq C L_{K}$ for all θ in a subset U of $S^{n - 1}$ with measure σ(U) ≥ 1 - exp(-c√n). However, there exist isotropic convex bodies K with uniformly bounded geometric distance from the Euclidean ball, such that $m a x_{θ \in S^{n - 1}} {| | ⟨ \cdot, θ ⟩ | |}_{ψ ₂} \geq c ∜ n L_{K}$ . In a different direction, we show that good average ψ₂-behaviour of linear functionals...

Siciak’s extremal function via Bernstein and Markov constants for compact sets in $ℂ^{N}$

Leokadia Bialas-Ciez (2012)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

The paper is concerned with the best constants in the Bernstein and Markov inequalities on a compact set $E \subset ℂ^{N}$ . We give some basic properties of these constants and we prove that two extremal-like functions defined in terms of the Bernstein constants are plurisubharmonic and very close to the Siciak extremal function $Φ_{E}$ . Moreover, we show that one of these extremal-like functions is equal to $Φ_{E}$ if E is a nonpluripolar set with $l i m_{n \to \infty} M ₙ {(E)}^{1 / n} = 1$ where $M ₙ (E) : = s u p {| | | g r a d P | | |}_{E} / {| | P | |}_{E}$ , the supremum is taken over all polynomials P of N variables...

Smoothing a polyhedral convex function via cumulant transformation and homogenization

Alberto Seeger (1997)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

Given a polyhedral convex function g: ℝⁿ → ℝ ∪ +∞, it is always possible to construct a family ${g ₜ}_{t > 0}$ which converges pointwise to g and such that each gₜ: ℝⁿ → ℝ is convex and infinitely often differentiable. The construction of such a family ${g ₜ}_{t > 0}$ involves the concept of cumulant transformation and a standard homogenization procedure.

On closed sets with convex projections in Hilbert space

Stoyu Barov, Jan J. Dijkstra (2007)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let k be a fixed natural number. We show that if C is a closed and nonconvex set in Hilbert space such that the closures of the projections onto all k-hyperplanes (planes with codimension k) are convex and proper, then C must contain a closed copy of Hilbert space. In order to prove this result we introduce for convex closed sets B the set $^{k} (B)$ consisting of all points of B that are extremal with respect to projections onto k-hyperplanes. We prove that $^{k} (B)$ is precisely the intersection of...
