Logarithmically concave measure Logarithmically concave measure In mathematics, a Borel measure "μ" on "n"-dimensional Euclidean space formula_1 is called logarithmically concave (or log-concave for short) if, for any compact subsets "A" and "B" of formula_1 and 0 < "λ" < 1, one has where "λ" "A" + (1 − "λ") "B" denotes the Minkowski sum of "λ" "A" and (1 − "λ") "B". The Brunn–Minkowski inequality asserts that the Lebesgue measure is log-concave. The restriction of the Lebesgue measure to any convex set is also log-concave. By a theorem of Borell, a measure is log-concave if and only if it has a density
Telecentric lens Telecentric lens A telecentric lens is a compound lens that has its entrance or exit pupil at infinity; in the prior case, this produces an orthographic view of the subject. This means that the chief rays (oblique rays that pass through the center of the aperture stop) are parallel to the optical axis in front of or behind the system, respectively. The simplest way to make a lens telecentric is to put the aperture stop at one of the lens's focal points. An entrance pupil at infinity makes the lens object-space telecentric. Such lenses are used in machine vision systems
