Functions Like Convex Functions

open access: yesJournal of Function Spaces, 2015
The paper deals with convex sets, functions satisfying the global convexity property, and positive linear functionals. Jensen's type inequalities can be obtained by using convex combinations with the common center. Following the idea of the common center,

New bounds for Shannon, Relative and Mandelbrot entropies via Hermite interpolating polynomial

open access: yesDemonstratio Mathematica, 2018
To procure inequalities for divergences between probability distributions, Jensen’s inequality is the key to success. Shannon, Relative and Zipf-Mandelbrot entropies have many applications in many applied sciences, such as, in information theory, biology

Comments on Jensen’s Inequalities

open access: yesMalaya Journal of Matematik, 2014
The paper gives generalizations of some Jensen type inequalities for convex functions of one variable. The work is based on the methods which use convex combinations in deriving inequalities. The main inequality is applied to the quasi-arithmetic means.

Bayesian clustering of multivariate extremes

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract The asymptotic dependence structure between multivariate extreme values is fully characterized by their projections on the unit simplex. Under mild conditions, the only constraint on the resulting distributions is that their marginal means must be equal, which results in a nonparametric model that can be difficult to use in applications ...

Existence of Full Replica Symmetry Breaking for the Sherrington–Kirkpatrick Model at Low Temperature

open access: yesCommunications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We verify the existence of full replica symmetry breaking (FRSB) for the Sherrington–Kirkpatrick (SK) model and determine the structure of its Parisi measure slightly beyond the high temperature regime. More specifically, we prove that the support of the Parisi measure for the SK model consists of an interval starting at the origin slightly ...

Application of Functionals in Creating Inequalities

open access: yesJournal of Function Spaces, 2016
The paper deals with the fundamental inequalities for convex functions in the bounded closed interval. The main inequality includes convex functions and positive linear functionals extending and refining the functional form of Jensen’s inequality.

Jensen-Feynman approach to the statistics of interacting electrons

open access: yes, 2009
Faussurier et al. [Phys. Rev. E 65, 016403 (2001)] proposed to use a variational principle relying on Jensen-Feynman (or Gibbs-Bogoliubov) inequality in order to optimize the accounting for two-particle interactions in the calculation of canonical ...

Board That Transforms: Relationship Between Board Structure and Environmental, Social, and Governance Performance in BRICS Countries

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between board composition characteristics and ESG performance in companies from BRICS countries, and to assess how sector sensitivity moderates this relationship. A sample of 2045 BRICS companies was examined using panel data regression with random effects and logistic regression ...

Improved Hermite–Hadamard Inequality Bounds for Riemann–Liouville Fractional Integrals via Jensen’s Inequality

open access: yesFractal and Fractional
This paper derives the sharp bounds for Hermite–Hadamard inequalities in the context of Riemann–Liouville fractional integrals. A generalization of Jensen’s inequality called the Jensen–Mercer inequality is used for general points to find the new and ...
