(This article belongs to the Special Issue Recent Trends in Convex Analysis and Mathematical Inequalities)
This Special Issue of the journal Mathematics was dedicated to the study of properties of convex functions and convex sets. Note that convex analysis touches almost all branches of mathematics. Convex functions play an important role in many areas of mathematics, as well as in other areas of science economy, engineering, medicine, industry, and business. It is especially important in the study of optimization problems, where it is distinguished by a number of convenient properties (for example, any minimum of a convex function is a global minimum, or the maximum is attained at a boundary point).
The aim of this Special Issue was to bring in the attention of the mathematical community both theoretical results and practical applications.
In the Call for Papers, a large number of subjects were mentioned, e.g., Convex analysis, Convex optimization, Convex functions, Biconvex functions, Generalized convexity, Majorization theory, Schur convex functions, Jensen inequality, Hermite–Hadamard inequality, Weighted inequalities, Geometric inequalities, Variational inequalities, Equilibrium problems.
26 papers were published between 2021 and 2025. Some of them are of great relevance and practical importance. All submissions were reviewed by at least two experts from the corresponding research field. The acceptance rate of the papers was 39.39%.
It is my pleasure to thank all authors for submitting their recent works, all reviewers for their timely and insightful reports, and the staff of the Editorial Office for their effective support in preparing this Special Issue. I hope that the readers of this Special Issue will find stimulating ideas that initiate new research works in this interesting research field of great practical importance.
