On the Linear Structures Induced by the Four Order Isomorphisms Acting on Cvx 0 (ℝ n )

Dan I. Florentin, Alexander Segal

It is known that the volume functional

\,\phi\mapsto\int e^{-\phi}\,   ϕ ↦ ∫ e − ϕ  
satisfies certain concavity or convexity inequalities with respect to three of the four linear structures induced by the order isomorphisms acting on
{\rm{Cvx}}_0(\mathbb{R}^n) C v x 0 ( R n )
. In this note we define the fourth linear structure on
{\rm{Cvx}}_0(\mathbb{R}^n) C v x 0 ( R n )
as the pullback of the standard linear structure under the
\cal J J
transform. We show that, interpolating with respect to this linear structure, no concavity or convexity inequalities hold, and prove that a quasi-convexity inequality is violated only by up to a factor of
2 2
. We also establish all the order relations which the four different interpolations satisfy.
