On the symmetric average of a convex body
نویسندگان
چکیده
We introduce a new parameter, symmetric average, which measures the asymmetry of a given non-degenerated convex body K in Rn. Namely, sav(K) = infa∈intK ∫ Ka ‖ − x‖Ka dx/|K|, where |K| denotes the volume of K and Ka = K − a. We show that for polytopes sav(K) ≤ C ln N , where N is the number of facets of K. Moreover, in general n n+1 ≤ sav(K) < √ n and equality in the lower bound holds if and only if K is centrally symmetric. We apply these estimates to provide bounds for covering K by homotets of K ∩ −K.

Global convergence of an inexact interior-point method for convex quadratic symmetric cone programming
In this paper, we propose a feasible interior-point method for convex quadratic programming over symmetric cones. The proposed algorithm relaxes the accuracy requirements in the solution of the Newton equation system, by using an inexact Newton direction. Furthermore, we obtain an acceptable level of error in the inexact algorithm on convex quadratic symmetric cone programmin...
متن کاملNumerical simulation of Laminar Free Convection Heat Transfer around Isothermal Concave and Convex Body Shapes
In the present research, free convection heat transfer from isothermal concave and convex body shapes is studied numerically. The body shapes investigated here, are bi-sphere, cylinder, prolate and cylinder with hemispherical ends; besides, they have the same height over width (H/D = 2). A Numerical simulation is implemented to obtain heat transfer and fluid flow from all of the geometries in a...

Weak convergence theorems for symmetric generalized hybrid mappings in uniformly convex Banach spaces
In this paper, we prove some theorems related to properties of generalized symmetric hybrid mappings in Banach spaces. Using Banach limits, we prove a fixed point theorem for symmetric generalized hybrid mappings in Banach spaces. Moreover, we prove some weak convergence theorems for such mappings by using Ishikawa iteration method in a uniformly convex Banach space.
متن کاملSome Results on Convex Spectral Functions: I
In this paper, we give a fundamental convexity preserving for spectral functions. Indeed, we investigate infimal convolution, Moreau envelope and proximal average for convex spectral functions, and show that this properties are inherited from the properties of its corresponding convex function. This results have many applications in Applied Mathematics such as semi-definite programmings and eng...
