Metrically convex functions in normed spaces

Stanisław Kryński (1993)

Studia Mathematica

Properties of metrically convex functions in normed spaces (of any dimension) are considered. The main result, Theorem 4.2, gives necessary and sufficient conditions for a function to be metrically convex, expressed in terms of the classical convexity theory.

Modified log-Sobolev inequalities for convex functions on the real line. Sufficient conditions

Radosław Adamczak, Michał Strzelecki (2015)

Studia Mathematica

We provide a mild sufficient condition for a probability measure on the real line to satisfy a modified log-Sobolev inequality for convex functions, interpolating between the classical log-Sobolev inequality and a Bobkov-Ledoux type inequality. As a consequence we obtain dimension-free two-level concentration results for convex functions of independent random variables with sufficiently regular tail decay. We also provide a link between modified log-Sobolev inequalities...

Morse-Sard theorem for delta-convex curves

D. Pavlica (2008)

Mathematica Bohemica

Let f : I X be a delta-convex mapping, where I is an open interval and X a Banach space. Let C f be the set of critical points of f . We prove that f ( C f ) has zero 1 / 2 -dimensional Hausdorff measure.
