A Lipschitzian's condition for the measure of nonconvexity
I'm actually working on the measure of nonconvexity and its application. Especially, the Eisenfeld–Lakshmikantham MNC defined - in a Banach space - by:
$$\alpha(A)=\sup_{b\in\overline{\operatorname{...

Monotonicity of canonical ellipsoids
Let $\mathcal{C}$ be the set of compact convex centrally symmetric sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$, and let $\mathcal{E} \subset \mathcal{C}$ be the set of ellipsoids centered at the origin.
I'm looking for a ...

On the modulus of convexity of mixed-norm $\ell_{p_1,p_2}$ spaces
Let $\ell_{p_1,p_2}=(\mathbb{R}^{m\times n},\|\cdot\|_{p_1,p_2})$ be the space of $m\times n$ matrices endowed with the mixed-norm
$$ \|X\|_{p_1,p_2} = \left( \sum_{j=1}^n \left( \sum_{i=1}^m |x_{ij}|...

What is the doubling dimension of convex functions?
I am interested in the complexity of convex functions, specifically the "doubling dimension" of the class of convex functions defined on a compact subset of Euclidean space, when compared using the $L^...

Are faces of a compact, convex body "opposed" iff their extreme points are pairwise "opposed"?
Let $P$ be a compact, convex subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$ (infinite-dimensional generalisations welcome, but not necessary). Let's say that disjoint subsets $W_1$, $W_2$ $\subset P$ are opposed if there ...

Local minimum from directional derivatives in the space of convex bodies
I have a function $f(K)$ defined on the space of three-dimensional convex bodies for which I want to show that the unit ball $B$ is a local minimum. I have been able to show if $K$ is not homothetic ...
