The existence of a homogeneous decomposition for continuous and epi-translation invariant valuations on super-coercive functions is established. Continuous and epi-translation invariant valuations that are epi-homogeneous of degree n are classified. By duality, corresponding results are obtained for valuations on finite-valued convex functions.2000 AMS subject classification: 52B45 (26B25, 52A21, 52A41)
All continuous, SL(n) and translation invariant valuations on the space of convex functions on R n are completely classified. 2000 AMS subject classification: 26B25 (46A40, 52A20, 52B45).
A complete classification of all continuous, epi-translation and rotation invariant valuations on the space of super-coercive convex functions on R n is established. The valuations obtained are functional versions of the classical intrinsic volumes. For their definition, singular Hessian valuations are introduced.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
