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...

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...

A. Koldobsky, A. Pajor, V. Yaskin (2008)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We extend Kahane-Khinchin type inequalities to the case p > -2. As an application we verify the slicing problem for the unit balls of finite-dimensional spaces that embed in $L_{p}$ , p > -2.

Operations between sets in geometry

Richard J. Gardner, Daniel Hug, Wolfgang Weil (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

An investigation is launched into the fundamental characteristics of operations on and between sets, with a focus on compact convex sets and star sets (compact sets star-shaped with respect to the origin) in $n$ -dimensional Euclidean space $ℝ^{n}$ . It is proved that if $n \geq 2$ , with three trivial exceptions, an operation between origin-symmetric compact convex sets is continuous in the Hausdorff metric, $G L (n)$ covariant, and associative if and only if it is $L_{p}$ addition for some $1 \leq p \leq \infty$ . It is also demonstrated...

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...

Pairs of convex bodies in a hyperspace over a Minkowski two-dimensional space joined by a unique metric segment

Agnieszka Bogdewicz, Jerzy Grzybowski (2009)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

Let $(ℝ, | | \cdot | |_{)}$ be a Minkowski space with a unit ball and let $ϱ_{H}^{}$ be the Hausdorff metric induced by ${| | \cdot | |}_{}$ in the hyperspace of convex bodies (nonempty, compact, convex subsets of ℝ). R. Schneider [RSP] characterized pairs of elements of which can be joined by unique metric segments with respect to $ϱ_{H}^{B ⁿ}$ for the Euclidean unit ball Bⁿ. We extend Schneider’s theorem to the hyperspace $(², ϱ_{H}^{})$ over any two-dimensional Minkowski space.

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 $C o n v_{F} (ℝ) \approx ℝ \times$ .

The Young inequality and the Δ₂-condition

Philippe Laurençot (2002)

Colloquium Mathematicae

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”...

A characterization of sets in $ℝ^{2}$ with DC distance function

Dušan Pokorný, Luděk Zajíček (2022)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

We give a complete characterization of closed sets $F \subset ℝ^{2}$ whose distance function $d_{F} : = dist (\cdot, F)$ is DC (i.e., is the difference of two convex functions on $ℝ^{2}$ ). Using this characterization, a number of properties of such sets is proved.

Geometry and inequalities of geometric mean

Trung Hoa Dinh, Sima Ahsani, Tin-Yau Tam (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

We study some geometric properties associated with the $t$ -geometric means $A ♯_{t} B : = A^{1 / 2} {(A^{- 1 / 2} B A^{- 1 / 2})}^{t} A^{1 / 2}$ of two $n \times n$ positive definite matrices $A$ and $B$ . Some geodesical convexity results with respect to the Riemannian structure of the $n \times n$ positive definite matrices are obtained. Several norm inequalities with geometric mean are obtained. In particular, we generalize a recent result of Audenaert (2015). Numerical counterexamples are given for some inequality questions. A conjecture on the geometric mean inequality regarding...

Quantitative stability for sumsets in $ℝ^{n}$

Alessio Figalli, David Jerison (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Given a measurable set $A \subset ℝ^{n}$ of positive measure, it is not difficult to show that $| A + A | = | 2 A |$ if and only if $A$ is equal to its convex hull minus a set of measure zero. We investigate the stability of this statement: If $(| A + A | - | 2 A |) / | A |$ is small, is $A$ close to its convex hull? Our main result is an explicit control, in arbitrary dimension, on the measure of the difference between $A$ and its convex hull in terms of $(| A + A | - | 2 A |) / | A |$ .

A note on the commutator of two operators on a locally convex space

Edvard Kramar (2016)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

Denote by $C$ the commutator $A B - B A$ of two bounded operators $A$ and $B$ acting on a locally convex topological vector space. If $A C - C A = 0$ , we show that $C$ is a quasinilpotent operator and we prove that if $A C - C A$ is a compact operator, then $C$ is a Riesz operator.

Injectivity of sections of convex harmonic mappings and convolution theorems

Liulan Li, Saminathan Ponnusamy (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

We consider the class $ℋ_{0}$ of sense-preserving harmonic functions $f = h + \bar{g}$ defined in the unit disk $| z | < 1$ and normalized so that $h (0) = 0 = h^{'} (0) - 1$ and $g (0) = 0 = g^{'} (0)$ , where $h$ and $g$ are analytic in the unit disk. In the first part of the article we present two classes $𝒫_{H}^{0} (α)$ and $𝒢_{H}^{0} (β)$ of functions from $ℋ_{0}$ and show that if $f \in 𝒫_{H}^{0} (α)$ and $F \in 𝒢_{H}^{0} (β)$ , then the harmonic convolution is a univalent and close-to-convex harmonic function in the unit disk provided certain conditions for parameters $α$ and $β$ are satisfied. In the second part we study the harmonic sections...

Asymmetric covariance estimates of Brascamp–Lieb type and related inequalities for log-concave measures

Eric A. Carlen, Dario Cordero-Erausquin, Elliott H. Lieb (2013)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

An inequality of Brascamp and Lieb provides a bound on the covariance of two functions with respect to log-concave measures. The bound estimates the covariance by the product of the $L^{2}$ norms of the gradients of the functions, where the magnitude of the gradient is computed using an inner product given by the inverse Hessian matrix of the potential of the log-concave measure.

Matrix subspaces of L₁

Gideon Schechtman (2013)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

If $E = e_{i}$ and $F = f_{i}$ are two 1-unconditional basic sequences in L₁ with E r-concave and F p-convex, for some 1 ≤ r < p ≤ 2, then the space of matrices $a_{i, j}$ with norm $| | a_{i, j} {| |}_{E (F)} = | | \sum_{k} | | \sum_{l} a_{k, l} f_{l} | | e_{k} | |$ embeds into L₁. This generalizes a recent result of Prochno and Schütt.

Majorization of sequences, sharp vector Khinchin inequalities, and bisubharmonic functions

Albert Baernstein II, Robert C. Culverhouse (2002)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let $X = \sum_{i = 1}^{k} a_{i} U_{i}$ , $Y = \sum_{i = 1}^{k} b_{i} U_{i}$ , where the $U_{i}$ are independent random vectors, each uniformly distributed on the unit sphere in ℝⁿ, and $a_{i}, b_{i}$ are real constants. We prove that if $b ²_{i}$ is majorized by $a ²_{i}$ in the sense of Hardy-Littlewood-Pólya, and if Φ: ℝⁿ → ℝ is continuous and bisubharmonic, then EΦ(X) ≤ EΦ(Y). Consequences include most of the known sharp $L ² - L^{p}$ Khinchin inequalities for sums of the form X. For radial Φ, bisubharmonicity is necessary as well as sufficient for the majorization inequality to always hold. Counterparts...

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We prove some results in the context of isoperimetric inequalities with quantitative terms. In the $2$ -dimensional case, our main contribution is a method for determining the optimal coefficients $c_{1}, ..., c_{m}$ in the inequality $δ P (E) \geq \sum_{k = 1}^{m} c_{k} α {(E)}^{k} + o (α {(E)}^{m})$ , valid for each Borel set $E$ with positive and finite area, with $δ P (E)$ and $α (E)$ being, respectively, the $𝑖𝑠𝑜𝑝𝑒𝑟𝑖𝑚𝑒𝑡𝑟𝑖𝑐𝑑𝑒𝑓𝑖𝑐𝑖𝑡$ and the $𝐹𝑟𝑎𝑒𝑛𝑘𝑒𝑙𝑎𝑠𝑦𝑚𝑚𝑒𝑡𝑟𝑦$ of $E$ .

Regularity of stable solutions of $p$ -Laplace equations through geometric Sobolev type inequalities

Daniele Castorina, Manel Sanchón (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We prove a Sobolev and a Morrey type inequality involving the mean curvature and the tangential gradient with respect to the level sets of the function that appears in the inequalities. Then, as an application, we establish a priori estimates for semistable solutions of $- Δ_{p} u = g (u)$ in a smooth bounded domain $Ω \subset ℝ^{n}$ . In particular, we obtain new $L^{r}$ and $W^{1, r}$ bounds for the extremal solution $u^{☆}$ when the domain is strictly convex. More precisely, we prove that $u^{☆} \in L^{\infty} (Ω)$ if $n \leq p + 2$ and $u^{☆} \in L^{\frac{n p}{n - p - 2}} (Ω) \cap W_{0}^{1, p} (Ω)$ if $n > p + 2$ .
