چکیده

We give a simpler proof of the Gromov–Milman theorem on concentration phenomenon on uniformly convex sphere. We also outline Rohlin’s theory of measurable partitions used in the proof. The purpose of this note is to present a localization technique for the sphere S on an example of the Gromov–Milman theorem [Gr-M] about the concentration phenomenon on uniformly convex spheres. This result was obtained in [Gr-M] in a some more general setting. Our approach follows the same general reasoning, but is simpler and more direct than the original approach. We also outline Rohlin’s theory of measurable partitions, which is used in the proof. Note that the terminology of “localization” was introduced for R by L. Lovász and M. Simonovits [L-S1, L-S2]. [Gr-M] did not use such terminology and also did not put the scheme of localization explicitly. Note. K. Ball has informed us recently that he, jointly with R. Villa, found an extremely short proof of the Gromov–Milman theorem for uniformly convex sphere as an application of the Prekopa–Leindler inequality (see, e.g., [P]). 1. Related Definitions and Formulation of the Gromov–Milman Theorem Definition 1.1. Let us say that a finite dimensional normed space X = (R, ‖·‖) has modulus of convexity at least δ(ε) > 0 for ε > 0, if for all vectors x, y ∈ X such that ‖x‖ = ‖y‖ = 1 and ‖x− y‖ ≥ ε we have ‖ 2 ‖ ≤ 1− δ(ε). We may assume δ(ε) to be a monotone increasing function of positive ε. Denote by K(X) := {x ∈ X : ‖x‖ ≤ 1} the unit ball of X and by S(X) := {x ∈ X : ‖x‖ = 1} the unit sphere of X.

An isoperimetric inequality for uniformly log-concave measures and uniformly convex bodies

We prove an isoperimetric inequality for uniformly log-concave measures and for the uniform measure on a uniformly convex body. These inequalities imply the log-Sobolev inequalities proved by Bobkov and Ledoux [12] and Bobkov and Zegarlinski [13]. We also recover a concentration inequality for uniformly convex bodies, similar to that proved by Gromov and Milman [22].

Functionally closed sets and functionally convex sets in real Banach spaces

‎Let $X$ be a real normed  space, then  $C(subseteq X)$  is  functionally  convex  (briefly, $F$-convex), if  $T(C)subseteq Bbb R $ is  convex for all bounded linear transformations $Tin B(X,R)$; and $K(subseteq X)$  is  functionally   closed (briefly, $F$-closed), if  $T(K)subseteq Bbb R $ is  closed  for all bounded linear transformations $Tin B(X,R)$. We improve the    Krein-Milman theorem  ...

A cone theoretic Krein-Milman theorem in semitopological cones

In this paper, a Krein-Milman  type theorem in $T_0$ semitopological cone is proved,  in general. In fact, it is shown that in any locally convex $T_0$ semitopological cone, every convex compact saturated subset is the compact saturated convex hull of its extreme points, which improves the results of Larrecq.

Embeddings of Levy Families into Banach Spaces

We prove that if a metric probability space with a usual concentration property embeds into a Banach space X, then X has a proportional Euclidean subspace. In particular, this yields a new characterization of weak cotype 2. We also find optimal lower estimates on embeddings spaces with concentration properties (i.e. uniformly convex spaces) into l ∞, thus providing an ”isomorphic” extension to ...

Linear Weingarten hypersurfaces in a unit sphere

In this paper, by modifying Cheng-Yau$'$s technique to complete hypersurfaces in $S^{n+1}(1)$, we prove a rigidity theorem under the hypothesis of the mean curvature and the normalized scalar curvature being linearly related which improve the result of [H. Li, Hypersurfaces with constant scalar curvature in space forms, {em Math. Ann.} {305} (1996), 665--672].
