We prove that the extreme points of the set of s-concave probability measures satisfying a linear constraint are some Dirac measures and some s-affine probabilities supported by a segment. From this we deduce that the constrained maximization of a convex functional on the s-concave probability measures is reduced to this small set of extreme points. This gives a new approach to a localization theorem due to Kannan, Lovász and Simonovits which happens to be very useful in geometry to obtain inequalities for integrals like concentration and isoperimetric inequalities. Roughly speaking, the study of such inequalities is reduced to these extreme points.  相似文献

Let be an affine continuous mapping of a compact convex set X onto a compact convex set Y. We show that the induced mapping φ? need not map maximal measures on X to maximal measures on Y even in case φ maps extreme points of X to extreme points of Y. This disproves Théorème 6 of [S. Teleman, Sur les mesures maximales, C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris Sér. I Math. 318 (6) (1994) 525-528]. We prove the statement of Théorème 6 under an additional assumption that extY is Lindelöf or Y is a simplex. We also show that under either of these two conditions injectivity of φ on extX implies injectivity of φ? on maximal measures. A couple of examples illustrate the results.  相似文献

We show that, under certain conditions, Birkhoff's theorem on doubly stochastic matrices remains valid for countable families of discrete probability spaces which have nonempty intersections. Using this result, we study the relation between the spectrum of a self-adjoint operator A and its multidimensional numerical range. It turns out that the multidimensional numerical range is a convex set whose extreme points are sequences of eigenvalues of the operator A. Every collection of eigenvalues which can be obtained by the Rayleigh-Ritz formula generates an extreme point of the multidimensional numerical range. However, it may also have other extreme points.  相似文献

Busemann's theorem states that the intersection body of an origin-symmetric convex body is also convex. In this paper we provide a version of Busemann's theorem for p-convex bodies. We show that the intersection body of a p-convex body is q-convex for certain q. Furthermore, we discuss the sharpness of the previous result by constructing an appropriate example. This example is also used to show that IK, the intersection body of K, can be much farther away from the Euclidean ball than K. Finally, we extend these theorems to some general measure spaces with log-concave and s-concave measures.  相似文献

Every convex body K in Rn has a coordinate projection PK that contains at least cells of the integer lattice PZn, provided this volume is at least one. Our proof of this counterpart of Minkowski's theorem is based on an extension of the combinatorial density theorem of Sauer, Shelah and Vapnik-Chervonenkis to Zn. This leads to a new approach to sections of convex bodies. In particular, fundamental results of the asymptotic convex geometry such as the Volume Ratio Theorem and Milman's duality of the diameters admit natural versions for coordinate sections.  相似文献

General results saying that a point x of the unit sphere S(E) of a Köthe space E is an extreme point (a strongly extreme point) [an SU-point] of B(E) if and only if ‖x‖ is an extreme point (a strongly extreme point) [an SU-point] of B(E+) and ‖x‖ is a UM-point (a ULUM-point) [nothing more] of E are proved. These results are applied to get criteria for extreme points and SU-points of the unit ball in Caldern-Lozanovski spaces which refer to problem XII from [5]. Strongly extreme points in these spaces are also discussed.  相似文献

Doubly stochastic matrices are defined which have entries from an arbitrary vector space V. The extreme points of this convex set of matrices are studied, and convex subsets of V are identified for which these extreme matrices are of a permutation matrix type, i.e. for which a Birkhoff theorem holds.  相似文献

The overflow probability in an Erlang loss system is known to be decreasing convex in the number of servers. Here we consider the GI/M/m loss system with ordered entry and heterogeneous servers. We show that adding a sequence of servers with non-increasing (non-decreasing) service rates will yield a decreasing convex (log-concave) sequence of overflow probabilities. An optimal server allocation problem is solved as a direct application of these results.  相似文献

We establish new functional versions of the Blaschke–Santaló inequality on the volume product of a convex body which generalize to the non-symmetric setting an inequality of Ball [Isometric problems in ℓ p and sections of convex sets. PhD Dissertation, Cambridge, 1986] and we give a simple proof of the case of equality. As a corollary, we get some inequalities for log-concave functions and Legendre transforms which extend the recent result of Artstein et al. [Mathematika 51:33–48, 2004], with its equality case.  相似文献

On the class of log-concave functions on RnRn, endowed with a suitable algebraic structure, we study the first variation of the total mass functional, which corresponds to the volume of convex bodies when restricted to the subclass of characteristic functions. We prove some integral representation formulae for such a first variation, which suggest to define in a natural way the notion of area measure for a log-concave function. In the same framework, we obtain a functional counterpart of Minkowski’s first inequality for convex bodies; as corollaries, we derive a functional form of the isoperimetric inequality, and a family of logarithmic-type Sobolev inequalities with respect to log-concave probability measures. Finally, we propose a suitable functional version of the classical Minkowski’s problem for convex bodies, and prove some partial results towards its solution.  相似文献

We consider the isoperimetric inequality on the class of high-dimensional isotropic convex bodies. We establish quantitative connections between two well-known open problems related to this inequality, namely, the thin shell conjecture, and the conjecture by Kannan, Lovász, and Simonovits, showing that the corresponding optimal bounds are equivalent up to logarithmic factors. In particular we prove that, up to logarithmic factors, the minimal possible ratio between surface area and volume is attained on ellipsoids. We also show that a positive answer to the thin shell conjecture would imply an optimal dependence on the dimension in a certain formulation of the Brunn–Minkowski inequality. Our results rely on the construction of a stochastic localization scheme for log-concave measures.  相似文献

This paper deals with a generalization of a result due to Brascamp and Lieb which states that in the space of probabilities with log-concave density with respect to a Gaussian measure on this Gaussian measure is the one which has strongest moments. We show that this theorem remains true if we replace x by a general convex function. Then, we deduce a correlation inequality for convex functions quite better than the one already known. Finally, we prove results concerning stochastic analysis on abstract Wiener spaces through the notion of approximate limit.Mathematics Subject Classification (2000): Primary: 28C20, 60E15, 60H05Revised version: 20 February 2004  相似文献

In Numer. Funct. Anal. Optim. 22 (2001) 641-656, we obtained an effective quantitative analysis of a theorem due to Borwein, Reich, and Shafrir on the asymptotic behavior of general Krasnoselski-Mann iterations for nonexpansive self-mappings of convex sets C in arbitrary normed spaces. We used this result to obtain a new strong uniform version of Ishikawa's theorem for bounded C. In this paper we give a qualitative improvement of our result in the unbounded case and prove the uniformity result for the bounded case under the weaker assumption that C contains a point x whose Krasnoselski-Mann iteration (xk) is bounded. We also consider more general iterations for which asymptotic regularity is known only for uniformly convex spaces (Groetsch). We give uniform effective bounds for (an extension of) Groetsch's theorem which generalize previous results by Kirk, Martinez-Yanez, and the author.  相似文献

Raikov’s conjecture states that semi-abelian categories are quasi-abelian. A first counterexample is contained in a paper of Bonet and Dierolf who considered the category of bornological locally convex spaces. We prove that every semi-abelian category I admits a left essential embedding into a quasi-abelian category Kl(I) such that I can be recovered from Kl(I) by localization. Conversely, it is shown that left essential full subcategories I of a quasi-abelian category are semi-abelian, and a criterion for I to be quasi-abelian is given. Applied to categories of locally convex spaces, the criterion shows that barreled or bornological spaces are natural counterexamples to Raikov’s conjecture. Using a dual argument, the criterion leads to a simplification of Bonet and Dierolf’s example.  相似文献

Using an idea of Vorono?, many John type and minimum position problems in dimension d can be transformed into more accessible geometric problems on convex subsets of the -dimensional cone of positive definite quadratic forms. In this way, we prove several new John type and minimum position results and give alternative versions and extensions of known results. In particular, we characterize minimum ellipsoidal shells of convex bodies and, in the typical case, show their uniqueness and determine the contact number. These results are formulated also in terms of the circumradius of convex bodies. Next, circumscribed ellipsoids of minimum surface area of a convex body and the corresponding minimum position problem are studied. Then we investigate John type characterizations of minimum positions of a convex body with respect to moments and the product of a moment and the moment of the polar body. The technique used in this context, finally, is applied to obtain corresponding results for the mean width and the surface area.  相似文献

After introducing the basic concepts of extraction and marking for convex sets, the following marked representation theorem is established: Let C be a lineally closed convex set without lines, the face lattice of which satisfies some descending chain condition, and let μ be some marking on C. Then every point of C can be represented in unique way as a convex (nonnegative) linear combination of points (directions) of C which are μ-independent, and this representation can be determined by an algorithm of successive extractions. In particular, if C is a finite dimensional closed convex set without lines and μ marks extreme points (directions) only, then the marked representation theorem contains some well-known results of convex analysis as special cases, and it yields in the case where C is a polyhedral triangulation which extends available results on polytopes to the unbounded case. The triangulation of unbounded polyhedra then is applied to a certain class of parametric linear programs.  相似文献

In the present paper, by using the Srivastava-Attiya operator, we define two new subclasses of k-fold symmetric analytic functions. Some interesting properties of these subclasses such as integral representations, extreme points, close convex hulls and subordinations are obtained, which generalize and refine some previous results.  相似文献

We prove new entropy inequalities for log concave and s-concave functions that strengthen and generalize recently established reverse log Sobolev and Poincaré inequalities for such functions. This leads naturally to the concept of f-divergence and, in particular, relative entropy for s-concave and log concave functions. We establish their basic properties, among them the affine invariant valuation property. Applications are given in the theory of convex bodies.  相似文献
