Asking for an English version of Aleksandrov's famous 1939 paper in Convex Geometry
This paper is contained in the 1-st volume of Aleksandrov's Selected works. This has an English translation:
Alexandrov, A. D.
Reshetnyak, Yu. G. (ed.)
Selected works. Part 1: Selected scientific pape …

Are polynomials with only real zeros log concave functions?
This fact is trivial. Your assumptions imply that $$f(x)=ax^m\prod(1+x/x_k),$$
where $a>0$ and $x_k>0$. All zeros $-x_k$ are negative because you assume that
$a_k\geq 0$, so there are no positive zero …

Hausdorff dimension of convex set in ${\bf R}^n$
Yes. The boundary even has a locally finite Haudsorff $(m-1)$-measure.
No. A convex function of 1 variable has increasing derivative, but this derivative can have a
dense set of jumps.
In general, …

An arrangement of hyperplanes
If you have an arbitrary system of linear equations and add
to it one equation, the dimension of the space of solutions
can decrease by at most 1. Do take any $d$ equations of your hyperplanes, order …

Gradient estimate of convex functions
Let me explain first what Anton wrote: we construct piecewise linear function $f$ by on
$[0,n]$ by induction in $n$. Suppose that it is already constructed on $[0,n]$. Define
the right derivative $D^+ …

On the convex cone of convex functions
The answer is negative. Example:
$$\max\{ |y|,|x|-1\}.$$
This is a convex piecewise linear function
which is not a convex combination of your "tripods", and not a limit of such combinations.

Intersection of Subharmonic and Harmonic Functions (also: Extension of harmonic functions)
There are no such $C$ at all, when $n>2$. Indeed your conditions imply $h_\phi=\phi$
on $\partial C$. But $h$ is bounded and continuous on $\partial C$, while
when $n\geq 2$ there is always a subharmo …

Example of a concave function with $\lim_{x\to 0^+}\frac{g(x)}{-x\ln x}=\infty$ which fullfi...
Take $g_1(x)=x\log^2x$. Properties 1,2 are evidently satisfied, and computation
of the second derivative shows that it is negative for $0< x<1/e$.
Now rescale: $g(x)=g_1(x/e)$.
