Abstract

The free metaplectic transformation (FMT) is widely used in many fields such as filter design, pattern recognition, image processing and optics. In order to obtain a more concise and intuitive convolution form, this paper studies two kinds of new convolution theorems in the FMT domain. First, based on the expression of the generalized translation, we derive the convolution theorem of the first kind in the FMT domain, which has elegance and simplicity comparable to the classical results of Fourier transform (FT). Second, we again give the convolution theorem of the second kind in the FMT domain to further study the diversity of convolution theory. It has the advantage that it can be represented by a simple integral and is easy to implement in multiplying filter designs. Finally, based on the simple form of the above convolution theorems, we discuss multiplicative filters in the MFT domain.

Average Chord Lengths in a Triangle

Let $P$ be a point inside a triangle $T$. We consider the average length of the chords of $T$ through $P$, where the direction of the chord is chosen uniformly. An elementary formula is obtained in terms of the distances from $P$ to the sides and vertices of the triangle. Several classical triangle centers give especially simple specializations. For example, if $I$ is the incenter, then \[ M_T(I)=\frac{2r}{\pi} \log\left(\cot\frac A4\cot\frac B4\cot\frac C4\right). \] Our main result is the sharp inequality \[ M_T(P)\le \frac{p}{\pi\sqrt3}\log(2+\sqrt3), \] valid simultaneously for every triangle of perimeter $p$ and every interior point $P$. Thus, among all such pairs $(T,P)$, the largest possible average chord length occurs only when $T$ is equilateral and $P$ is its center. The proof is an elementary symmetrization argument. We close with brief remarks relating the problem to the radial center of a convex body, the electrostatic potential center of a triangle, and dual quermassintegrals.

A Proof of Liu's Conjecture on the Fundamental Triangle Inequality

Let $a,b,c$ be the side lengths of a triangle, and let $R$ and $r$ denote its circumradius and inradius, respectively. We prove a conjecture of Liu stating that \[\sum_{\mathrm{cyc}} \left(\frac{a(b+c-a)}{bc}\right)^k \geq 2+\left(\frac{2r}{R}\right)^k,~~k>1, \] with the reverse inequality for $0<k<1$. The proof reduces the problem to three positive variables with fixed sum and product. We also determine the equality cases.
