Hessian Measures Ii

چکیده
In our previous paper on this topic, we introduced the notion of k-Hessian measure associated with a continuous k-convex function in a domain Ω in Euclidean n-space, k = 1, · · · , n, and proved a weak continuity result with respect to local uniform convergence. In this paper, we consider k-convex functions, not necessarily continuous, and prove the weak continuity of the associated k-Hessian measure with respect to convergence in measure. The proof depends upon local integral estimates for the gradients of k-convex functions.

Hessian Measures Iii
In this paper, we continue previous investigations into the theory of Hessian measures. We extend our weak continuity result to the case of mixed k-Hessian measures associated with k-tuples of k-convex functions, on domains in Euclidean n-space, k = 1, 2, · · · , n. Applications are given to capacity, quasicontinuity, and the Dirichlet problem, with inhomogeneous terms, continuous with respect ...
متن کاملHessian measures of semi-convex functions and applications to support measures of convex bodies∗
This paper originates from the investigation of support measures of convex bodies (sets of positive reach), which form a central subject in convex geometry and also represent an important tool in related fields. We show that these measures are absolutely continuous with respect to Hausdorff measures of appropriate dimensions, and we determine the Radon-Nikodym derivatives explicitly on sets of ...
متن کاملM ar 2 00 5 On Hessian measures for non - commuting vector fields
Previous results on Hessian measures by Trudinger and Wang are extended to the subelliptic case. Specifically we prove the weak continuity of the 2-Hessian operator, with respect to local L 1 convergence, for a system of m vector fields of step 2 and derive gradient estimates for the corresponding k-convex functions, 1 ≤ k ≤ m.

متن کاملAnalysis of the Hessian for Inverse Scattering Problems. Part II: Inverse Medium Scattering of Acoustic Waves
We address the inverse problem for scattering of acoustic waves due to an inhomogeneous medium. We derive and analyze the Hessian in both Hölder and Sobolev spaces. Using an integral equation approach based on Newton potential theory and compact embeddings in Hölder and Sobolev spaces, we show that the Hessian can be decomposed into two components, both of which are shown to be compact operator...
