Differential analysis of matrix convex functions
We analyze matrix convex functions of a fixed order defined on a real interval by differential methods as opposed to the characterization in terms of divided differences given by Kraus.

Continuous essential selections and integral functionals
Given a strictly positive measure, we characterize inner semicontinuous solid convex-valued mappings for which continuous functions which are selections almost everywhere are selections.

Convex analysis and financial equilibrium [PDF]
Convexity has long had an important role in economic theory, but some recent developments have featured it all the more in problems of equilibrium. Here the tools of convex analysis are applied to a basic model of incomplete financial markets in which assets are traded and money can be lent or borrowed between the present and future.

A new treatment of convex functions [PDF]
Convex functions have played a major role in the field of Mathematical inequalities. In this paper, we introduce a new concept related to convexity, which proves better estimates when the function is somehow more convex than another. In particular, we define what we called $g-$convexity as a generalization of $\log-$convexity.

A geometric approach to second-order differentiability of convex functions [PDF]
We show a new, elementary and geometric proof of the classical Alexandrov theorem about the second order differentiability of convex functions. We also show new proofs of recent results about Lusin approximation of convex functions and convex bodies by $C^{1,1}$ convex functions and convex bodies.

Sharp boundary regularity for some degenerate-singular Monge-Ampère Equations on k-convex domain [PDF]
We introduce the concept of k-strictly convexity to describe the accurate convexity of convex domains some directions of which boundary may be flat. Basing this accurate convexity, we construct sub-solutions the Dirichlet problem for some degenerate-singular Monge-Amp\`ere type equations and prove the sharp boundary estimates for convex viscosity ...

Variational Methods in Convex Analysis [PDF]
We use variational methods to provide a concise development of a number of basic results in convex and functional analysis. This illuminates the parallels between convex analysis and smooth subdifferential theory.

Decomposition of an Integrally Convex Set into a Minkowski Sum of Bounded and Conic Integrally Convex Sets [PDF]
Every polyhedron can be decomposed into a Minkowski sum (or vector sum) of a bounded polyhedron and a polyhedral cone. This paper establishes similar statements for some classes of discrete sets in discrete convex analysis, such as integrally convex sets, L-natural-convex sets, and M-natural-convex sets.

A convex-analysis perspective on disjunctive cuts [PDF]
We treat the general problem of cutting planes with tools from convex analysis. We emphasize the case of disjunctive polyhedra and the generation of facets. We conclude with some considerations on the design of efficient cut generators.
