Hyperbolic Polynomials and Convex Analysis [PDF]
AbstractA homogeneous real polynomialpishyperbolicwith respect to a given vector d if the univariate polynomial t ⟼ p(x − td) has all real roots for all vectorsx. Motivated by partial differential equations, Gårding proved in 1951 that the largest such root is a convex function ofx, and showed various ways of constructing new hyperbolic polynomials. We

Convex analysis on polyhedral spaces [PDF]
AbstractWe introduce notions of concavity for functions on balanced polyhedral spaces, and we show that concave functions on such spaces satisfy several strong continuity properties.

Near-Convex Archetypal Analysis [PDF]
Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) is a widely used linear dimensionality reduction technique for nonnegative data. NMF requires that each data point is approximated by a convex combination of basis elements. Archetypal analysis (AA), also referred to as convex NMF, is a well-known NMF variant imposing that the basis elements are themselves convex ...

Extreme-value statistics from Lagrangian convex hull analysis for homogeneous turbulent Boussinesq convection and MHD convection [PDF]
We investigate the utility of the convex hull of many Lagrangian tracers to analyze transport properties of turbulent flows with different anisotropy. In direct numerical simulations of statistically homogeneous and stationary Navier-Stokes turbulence ...

Convexity in Real Analysis [PDF]
We treat the classical notion of convexity in the context of hard real analysis. Definitions of the concept are given in terms of defining functions and quadratic forms, and characterizations are provided of different concrete notions of convexity. This analytic notion of convexity is related to more classical geometric ideas.

Convex analysis and thermodynamics [PDF]
Convex analysis is very useful to prove that a material model fulfills the second law of thermodynamics. Dissipation must remains non-negative and an elegant way to ensure this property is to construct an appropriate pseudo-potential of dissipation.

Discrete convex analysis [PDF]
A theory of "discrete convex analysis" is developed for integer-valued functions defined on integer lattice points. The theory parallels the ordinary convex analysis, covering discrete analogues of the fundamental concepts such as conjugacy, subgradients, the Fenchel min-max duality, separation theorems and the Lagrange duality framework for convex ...

Sensitivity Analysis for Mirror-Stratifiable Convex Functions [PDF]
This paper provides a set of sensitivity analysis and activity identification results for a class of convex functions with a strong geometric structure, that we coined "mirror-stratifiable".

Quantitative Stability of Linear Infinite Inequality Systems under Block Perturbations with Applications to Convex Systems [PDF]
The original motivation for this paper was to provide an efficient quantitative analysis of convex infinite (or semi-infinite) inequality systems whose decision variables run over general infinite-dimensional (resp.
