Derivative cancellation and hinge majorization

Abstract

Derivative cancellation gives a common convex minimum and two monotone rays.

Definition 1.1 (hingeIntegral).

Commentary.

The integral of the nonnegative part of the thresholded absolute value along the affine family h+c*k. All set integrals use real Lebesgue measure.

Theorem 1.2 (radial).

Commentary.

The squared-radius substitution reduces a planar radial Bochner integral to pi times its integral on the positive half-line. This identity also respects the zero value assigned to nonintegrable Bochner integrals.

Commentary.

A differentiable function that starts and ends at zero and has a nonnegative derivative before p and a nonpositive derivative after p has zero derivative integral over every strict superlevel set. Substitution on the two monotone intervals cancels their common endpoint. The remaining endpoint integral tends to zero.

Theorem 1.4 (hinge_min).

Commentary.

If h is nonnegative on the positive half-line and the derivative-direction superlevel integral vanishes, the thresholded absolute-value integral is minimized at coefficient zero. A pointwise subgradient inequality gives the integral comparison.

Theorem 1.5 (hinge_convex).

Commentary.

For a nonnegative threshold, the integral is a finite convex function of the affine coefficient. The triangle inequality bounds its values at convex combinations.

Theorem 1.6 (convex_rays).

Commentary.

A real convex function with a global minimum at zero is monotone on the nonnegative ray and antitone on the nonpositive ray.
