Legendre-type integrands and convex integral functions

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper, we study the properties of integral functionals induced on LE1(S,μ)L^1_E (S,μ) by closed convex functions on a Euclidean space EE. We give sufficient conditions for such integral functions to be strongly rotund (well-posed). We show that in this generality functions such as the Boltzmann-Shannon entropy and the Fermi-Dirac entropy are strongly rotund. We also study convergence in measure and give various limiting counterexample.
