摘要

This study establishes a complete characterization of convexity for the function \(\begin{aligned} K_{p}(x)=(x^{\top }A^{-p}x)(x^{\top }Ax)^{p} \end{aligned}\) in 2-dimensional spaces, where A is a real positive definite matrix, and \(p>0\) . We prove that \(K_{p}(x)\) is convex if and only if \(\begin{aligned} \frac{\lambda _{\max }(A)}{\lambda _{\min }(A)}\le \left( \frac{4p^{2} +9p+4+2\sqrt{2}(p+1)\sqrt{2p^{2}+5p+2}}{p}\right) ^{\frac{1}{1+p}}. \end{aligned}\) This generalizes Zhao’s result (J Comput Appl Math 235(15):4389–4403, 2011), which addressed the specific case \(p=1,\) to all positive values p in 2-dimensional spaces.
