Abstract
This paper provides a functional analogue of the recently initiated dual Orlicz–Brunn–Minkowski theory for star bodies. We first propose the Orlicz addition of measures, and establish the ...dual functional Orlicz–Brunn–Minkowski inequality. Based on a family of linear Orlicz additions of two measures, we provide an interpretation for the famous
$f$
-divergence. Jensen’s inequality for integrals is also proved to be equivalent to the newly established dual functional Orlicz–Brunn–Minkowski inequality. An optimization problem for the
$f$
-divergence is proposed, and related functional affine isoperimetric inequalities are established.
Existe una gran controversia alrededor de la cuestión de la desigualdad desde la perspectiva puramente económica, puesto que, si bien es reconocido que la desigualdad económica tiene efectos ...perjudiciales sobre la sociedad (discriminación, aumento de la vulnerabilidad de las clases más desfavorecidas, descontento generalizado, explosividad social, entre otros), desde el enfoque económico existen controversia sobre si la desigualdad es totalmente prescindible o por el contrario sería deseable mantener un nivel determinado de desigualdad económica con el objetivo de maximizar la eficiencia y productividad de la economía. Asimismo, también existe un gran debate sobre cuál es la dinámica de la desigualdad a largo plazo, qué patrones se pueden encontrar y sobre qué variables se asienta.
This article deploys a feminist political economy approach centered on social reproduction to analyze the reconfiguration and regeneration of multiple inequalities in households and the labor markets ...during the COVID-19 pandemic. Based on this approach, the analysis unpacks the multiple trajectories of fragility the current crisis is intervening on and reshaping in the home and in the world of work, and their gendered and racialized features across the world. It shows how the pandemic and the measures to contain it have further deepened the centrality of households and reproductive work in the functioning of capitalism and argues that the transformative potential of the crisis can only be harnessed by framing policy and political responses around social reproduction and its essential contributions to work and life.
HIGHLIGHTS
A feminist social reproduction approach reveals the COVID-19 crisis as a crisis of work.
The crisis is reshaping the organization of production and reproduction in households and global labor markets.
This reorganization is exacerbating gender, class, and race inequalities.
The pandemic has renewed the centrality of households in welfare provisioning and made social reproduction work visible.
An internationalist feminist response would ensure access to services based on the centrality of social reproduction.

By making use of the principle of subordination, we introduce a certain class of multivalent non-Bazilevic functions with higher order. Also, we obtain subordination property, inclusion result, and ...inequality properties of this class. The results presented here would provide extensions of those given in earlier works.
