On Popoviciu's concept of convexity for functions of $d$ variables

We establish an integral representation for Popoviciu's convex functions of $d$ variables. This representation serves as a~foundation for deriving several functional inequalities, analogous to those well-known for usual convex functions. Our results generalize and extend the results obtained by S.~Gal, C.~Niculescu, B.~Gavrea, T.~Popoviciu, and others, who considered only differentiable functions of two variables. In contrast to other authors, we do not impose any additional regularity assumptions on the studied functions.

Convex order for convolution polynomials of Borel measures

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for Borel measures to satisfy the inequality introduced by Komisarski, Rajba (2018). This inequality is a generalization of the convex order inequality for binomial distributions, which was proved by Mrowiec, Rajba, Wąsowicz (2017), as a probabilistic version of the inequality for convex functions, that was conjectured as an old open problem by I.~Raşa. We present also further generalizations using convex order inequalities between convolution polynomials of finite Borel measures. We generalize recent results obtained by B.~Gavrea (2018) in the discrete case to general case. We give solutions to his open problems and also formulate new problems.

A sharpening of a problem on Bernstein polynomials and convex function and related results

We present a short proof of a conjecture proposed by I. Raşa (2017), which is an inequality involving basic Bernstein polynomials and convex functions. This proof was given in the letter to I. Raşa (2017). The methods of our proof allow us to obtain some extended versions of this inequality as well as other inequalities given by I. Raşa. As a tool we use stochastic convex ordering relations. We propose also some generalizations of the binomial convex concentration inequality. We use it to insert some additional expressions between left and right sides of the Raşa inequalities.

Muirhead inequality for convex orders and a problem of I. Raşa on Bernstein polynomials

We present a new, very short proof of a conjecture by I. Raşa, which is an inequality involving basic Bernstein polynomials and convex functions. It was affirmed positively very recently by J. Mrowiec, T. Rajba and S. Wąsowicz (2017) by the use of stochastic convex orders, as well as by Abel (2017) who simplified their proof. We give a useful sufficient condition for the verification of some stochastic convex order relations, which in the case of binomial distributions are equivalent to the I. Raşa inequality. We give also the corresponding inequalities for other distributions. Our methods allow us to give some extended versions of stochastic convex orderings as well as the I. Raşa type inequalities. In particular, we prove the Muirhead type inequality for convex orders for convolution polynomials of probability distributions.

Inequalities between remainders of quadratures

It is well-known that in the class of convex functions the (nonnegative) remainder of the Midpoint Rule of the approximate integration is majorized by the remainder of the Trapezoid Rule. Hence the approximation of the integral of the convex function by the Midpoint Rule is better than the analogous approximation by the Trapezoid Rule. Following this fact we examine remainders of certain quadratures in the classes of convex functions of higher orders. Our main results state that for 3-convex (5-convex, respectively) functions the remainder of the 2-point (3-point, respectively) Gauss quadrature is non-negative and it is not greater than the remainder of the Simpson's Rule (4-point Lobatto quadrature, respectively). We also check the 2-point Radau quadratures for 2-convex functions to demonstrate that similar results fail to hold for convex functions of even orders. We apply Peano Kernel Theorem as a~main tool of our considerations.

On the behavior of integrable functions at infinity

We investigate the behavior of sequences $(f(c_nx))$ for Lebesgue integrable functions $f:\mathbb R^d\to\mathbb R$. In particular, we give a~description of classes of multipliers $(c_n)$ and $(d_n)$ such that $f(c_nx)\to0$ or $\sum_{n=1}^\infty|f(d_nx)|<\infty$ for $λ$ almost every $x\in\mathbb R^d$.

Sums of compositions of pairs of projections

We give some necessary and sufficient conditions for the possibility to represent a Hermitian operator on an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space (real or complex) in the form $\sum_{i=1}^nQ_iP_i$, where $P_1,\dots,P_n$, $Q_1,\dots,Q_n$ are orthogonal projections. We show that the smallest number $n=n(c)$ admitting the representation $x=\sum_{i=1}^{n(c)}Q_iP_i$ for every $x=x^*$ with $\|x\|\leq c$ satisfies $8c+\frac83\leq n(c)\leq 8c+10$. This is a partial answer to the question asked by L. W. Marcoux in 2010.

On the stability of the existence of fixed points for the projection-iterative methods with relaxation

We consider an $α$-relaxed projection $P_A^α:H\to H$ given by $P_A^α(x)=αP_A(x)+(1-α)x$ where $α\in[0,1]$ and $P_A$ is the projection onto a non-empty, convex and closed subset $A$ of the real Hilbert space $H$. We characterise all the sets $F\subset[0,1]$ such that for some non-empty, convex and closed subsets $A_1,A_2,\dots,A_k\subset H$ the composition $P_{A_k}^αP_{A_{k-1}}^α\dots P_{A_1}^α$ has a fixed point iff $α\in F$. It proves, that if $\dim H\geq 3$ and $k\geq3$ then the class of the derscribed above sets $F$ of coefficients $α$ is exactly the class of $F_σ$ subsets of $[0,1]$ containing $0$.
