Convex measure same thing as it being a logarithmically concave measure. The classes of "s"-convex measures form a nested increasing family as "s" decreases to −∞" or, equivalently Thus, the collection of −∞-convex measures is the largest such class, whereas the 0-convex measures (the logarithmically concave measures) are the smallest class. The convexity of a measure "μ" on "n"-dimensional Euclidean space R in the sense above is closely related to the convexity of its probability density function. Indeed, "μ" is "s"-convex if and only if there is an absolutely continuous measure "ν" with probability density function "ρ" on some R so that
Cylindrical lens Cylindrical lens A cylindrical lens is a lens which focuses light into a line instead of a point, as a spherical lens would. The curved face or faces of a cylindrical lens are sections of a cylinder, and focus the image passing through it into a line parallel to the intersection of the surface of the lens and a plane tangent to it. The lens compresses the image in the direction perpendicular to this line, and leaves it unaltered in the direction parallel to it (in the tangent plane). In a light sheet microscope, a cylindrical lens is placed in
