Some Reverses of the Jensen Inequality for Functions of Selfadjoint Operators in Hilbert Spaces

open access: yes, 2010
Some reverses of the Jensen inequality for functions of self-adjoint operators in Hilbert spaces under suitable assumptions for the involved operators are given. Applications for particular cases of interest are also provided.

Capacity and limitations of US wild meat donation programmes

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Historically, sharing of wild harvests to facilitate food security followed concepts of kin selection and reciprocal altruism. However, cultural shifts have reduced access to foods for some populations in modern times. Cultural altruism through sustainably harvested wild meat donation programmes (WDPs) can reduce food and nutritional ...

Generalized Jensen-Mercer Inequality for Functions with Nondecreasing Increments

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2016
In the year 2003, McD Mercer established an interesting variation of Jensen’s inequality and later in 2009 Mercer’s result was generalized to higher dimensions by M. Niezgoda. Recently, Asif et al.

Generalized Niezgoda's Inequality with Refinements and Applications [PDF]

open access: yesSahand Communications in Mathematical Analysis
Motivated by the results of Niezgoda, corresponding to the generalization of Mercer's inequality for positive weights, in this paper, we consider real weights, for which we establish related results.

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 ...

Adaptive Sliding Mode Control Design for Interval Type‐2 T–S Fuzzy Systems With Time Delay: An Event‐Triggered Approach

open access: yesInternational Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this work, a new event‐triggered adaptive first‐order sliding mode control method is proposed for nonlinear systems with constant time delays, modeled by interval type‐2 Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy systems. To handle matched disturbances with unknown upper bounds, a non‐overestimating adaptation strategy for the control coefficient is ...

Generalized Jensen and Jensen–Mercer inequalities for strongly convex functions with applications

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications
Strongly convex functions as a subclass of convex functions, still equipped with stronger properties, are employed through several generalizations and improvements of the Jensen inequality and the Jensen–Mercer inequality.

Measured‐State Conditioned Recursive Feasibility for Stochastic Model Predictive Control

open access: yesInternational Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we address the problem of designing stochastic model predictive control (SMPC) schemes for linear systems affected by unbounded disturbances. The contribution of the paper is rooted in a measured‐state initialization strategy. First, due to the nonzero probability of violating chance‐constraints in the case of unbounded noise ...

New Upper Bounds for the Weighted Chebyshev Functional

open access: yesAnnales Mathematicae Silesianae
New upper bounds for the weighted Chebyshev functional under various conditions, including those of Steffensen type, are given. The obtained results are used to establish some new bounds for the Jensen functional.
