Total Positivity and Convexity Preservation
It is well established that systems of totally positive blending functions, such as the Bernstein and B-spline bases, preserve monotonicity and convexity and are generally ‘shape preserving’ [9 ]. In this paper we show that total positivity is equivalent to the preservation of all orders of convexity. By a system we understand a sequence of functions (u0, . . . , un) defined on an interval [a, ...
متن کاملPositivity and convexity in rings of fractions∗)
Given a commutative ring A equipped with a preordering A (in the most general sense, see below), we look for a fractional ring extension (= “ring of quotients” in the sense of Lambek et al. [L]) as big as possible such that A extends to a preordering R of R (i.e. with A ∩R+ = A) in a natural way. We then ask for subextensions A ⊂ B of A ⊂ R such that A is convex in B with respect to B := B ∩R+....

متن کاملOn Nonparametric Tests of Positivity / Monotonicity / Convexity
We consider the problem of estimating the distance from an unknown signal, observed in a white-noise model, to convex cones of positive/monotone/convex functions. We show that, when the unknown function belongs to a Hölder class, the risk of estimating the Lr -distance, 1 ≤ r < ∞, from the signal to a cone is essentially the same (up to a logarithmic factor) as that of estimating the signal its...
متن کاملWhite-Point Preservation Enforces Positivity
It is commonplace to use a 3 3 linear transform to map device RGBs to XYZs. Two particular types of transforms have been developed based on the assumptions that we either maximally ignorant or maximally prescient about the world. Under the maximum ignorance assumption, it is assumed that nothing is known about the spectral statistics of the world and so the best correction transform is the one ...
