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
Lens clock clock can be used if a dial thickness gauge is not available. To do this, the contact lens is placed concave side up on a table or other hard surface. The lens clock is then brought down on it such that the center prong contacts the lens as close to its center as possible, and the outer prongs rest on the table. The thickness of the lens is then the sagitta formula_4 in the formula above, and can be calculated from the optical power reading, if the distance between the outer prongs is known.
