On a certain generalization of spherical twists

Yukinobu Toda (2007)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

This note gives a generalization of spherical twists, and describe the autoequivalences associated to certain non-spherical objects. Typically these are obtained by deforming the structure sheaves of ( 0 , - 2 ) -curves on threefolds, or deforming -objects introduced by D.Huybrechts and R.Thomas.

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 ) c 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 | | · , θ | | ψ 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 S n - 1 | | · , θ | | ψ c n L K . In a different direction, we show that good average ψ₂-behaviour of linear functionals...

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 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 p -spaces in n for 0 < p < 1 .

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 ( , | | · | | ) be a Minkowski space with a unit ball and let ϱ H be the Hausdorff metric induced by | | · | | 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 for the Euclidean unit ball Bⁿ. We extend Schneider’s theorem to the hyperspace ( ² , ϱ H ) over any two-dimensional Minkowski space.

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 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.

An inequality for spherical Cauchy dual tuples

Sameer Chavan (2013)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let T be a spherical 2-expansive m-tuple and let T denote its spherical Cauchy dual. If T is commuting then the inequality | β | = k ( β ! ) - 1 ( T ) β ( T ) * β ( k + m - 1 k ) | β | = k ( β ! ) - 1 ( T ) * β ( T ) β holds for every positive integer k. In case m = 1, this reveals the rather curious fact that all positive integral powers of the Cauchy dual of a 2-expansive (or concave) operator are hyponormal.

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 K , where u : Ω n m is a Lipschitz map and K is a bounded set in m × 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...

Characterization of the limit load in the case of an unbounded elastic convex

Adnene Elyacoubi, Taieb Hadhri (2005)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Similarity:

In this work we consider a solid body Ω 3 constituted by a nonhomogeneous elastoplastic material, submitted to a density of body forces λ f and a density of forces λ g acting on the boundary where the real λ is the loading parameter. The problem is to determine, in the case of an unbounded convex of elasticity, the Limit load denoted by λ ¯ beyond which there is a break of the structure. The case of a bounded convex of elasticity is done in [El-Fekih and Hadhri, RAIRO: Modél. Math. Anal. Numér....

Convexity of sublevel sets of plurisubharmonic extremal functions

Finnur Lárusson, Patrice Lassere, Ragnar Sigurdsson (1998)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

Let X be a convex domain in ℂⁿ and let E be a convex subset of X. The relative extremal function u E , X for E in X is the supremum of the class of plurisubharmonic functions v ≤ 0 on X with v ≤ -1 on E. We show that if E is either open or compact, then the sublevel sets of u E , X are convex. The proof uses the theory of envelopes of disc functionals and a new result on Blaschke products.

Circumradius versus side lengths of triangles in linear normed spaces

Gennadiy Averkov (2007)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Given a planar convex body B centered at the origin, we denote by ℳ ²(B) the Minkowski plane (i.e., two-dimensional linear normed space) with the unit ball B. For a triangle T in ℳ ²(B) we denote by R B ( T ) the least possible radius of a Minkowskian ball enclosing T. We remark that in the terminology of location science R B ( T ) is the optimum of the minimax location problem with distance induced by B and vertices of T as existing facilities (see, for instance, [HM03] and the references therein)....

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”...

On some identities involving spherical means

Gianfranco Cimmino (1989)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

Similarity:

For every positive definite quadratic form in n variables the reciprocal of the square root of the discriminant is equal to the arithmetic mean of the values assumed by the form on the n - 1 sphere centered at 0 and with radius 1 raised to the ( - n 2 )-th. power. Various consequences are deduced from this, in particular a simplification of some calculations from which one obtains the possibility of solving linear systems using spherical means rather than determinants.

Generalized characterization of the convex envelope of a function

Fethi Kadhi (2002)

RAIRO - Operations Research - Recherche Opérationnelle

Similarity:

We investigate the minima of functionals of the form [ a , b ] g ( u ˙ ( s ) ) d s where g is strictly convex. The admissible functions u : [ a , b ] are not necessarily convex and satisfy u f on [ a , b ] , u ( a ) = f ( a ) , u ( b ) = f ( b ) , f is a fixed function on [ a , b ] . We show that the minimum is attained by f ¯ , the convex envelope of f .

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 > 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 > 0 involves the concept of cumulant transformation and a standard homogenization procedure.

A sharp isoperimetric inequality in the plane

Angelo Alvino, Vincenzo Ferone, Carlo Nitsch (2011)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We show that among all the convex bounded domain in m a t h b b R 2 having an assigned Fraenkel asymmetry index, there exists only one convex set (up to a similarity) which minimizes the isoperimetric deficit. We also show how to construct this set. The result can be read as a sharp improvement of the isoperimetric inequality for convex planar domain.

Concerning Sets of the First Baire Category with Respect to Different Metrics

Maria Moszyńska, Grzegorz Sójka (2010)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

We prove that if ϱ H and δ are the Hausdorff metric and the radial metric on the space ⁿ of star bodies in ℝ, with 0 in the kernel and with radial function positive and continuous, then a family ⊂ ⁿ that is meager with respect to ϱ H need not be meager with respect to δ. Further, we show that both the family of fractal star bodies and its complement are dense in ⁿ with respect to δ.

Volumetric invariants and operators on random families of Banach spaces

Piotr Mankiewicz, Nicole Tomczak-Jaegermann (2003)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

The geometry of random projections of centrally symmetric convex bodies in N is studied. It is shown that if for such a body K the Euclidean ball B N is the ellipsoid of minimal volume containing it and a random n-dimensional projection B = P H ( K ) is “far” from P H ( B N ) then the (random) body B is as “rigid” as its “distance” to P H ( B N ) permits. The result holds for the full range of dimensions 1 ≤ n ≤ λN, for arbitrary λ ∈ (0,1).
