Approximating Extreme Points of Infinite Dimensional Convex Sets

The property that an optimal solution to the problem of minimizing a continuous concave function over a compact convex set in IRn is attained at an extreme point is generalized by the Bauer Minimum Principle to the infinite dimensional context. The problem of approximating and characterizing infinite dimensional extreme points thus becomes an important problem. Consider now an infinite dimensio...

Extreme Points in Convex Sets of Symmetric Matrices

This paper deals with the following problem: What are the extreme points of a convex set K of n X n matrices, which is the intersection of the set S„ of symmetric matrices of nonnegative type, with another convex subset of symmetric matrices HI In the case where the facial structure of H is known, we expose a general method to determine the extreme points of K (Theorem 1). Then, we apply this m...

A convex combinatorial property of compact sets in the plane and its roots in lattice theory

K. Adaricheva and M. Bolat have recently proved that if $,mathcal U_0$ and $,mathcal U_1$ are circles in a triangle with vertices $A_0,A_1,A_2$, then there exist $jin {0,1,2}$ and $kin{0,1}$ such that $,mathcal U_{1-k}$ is included in the convex hull of $,mathcal U_kcup({A_0,A_1, A_2}setminus{A_j})$. One could say disks instead of circles.Here we prove the existence of such a $j$ and $k$ ...

POINTS FOR m-CONVEX SETS

Let S be closed, m-convex subset of R d S locally a full ddimensional, with Q the corresponding set of Inc points of S If q is an essential inc point of order k then for some neighborhood U of q Q u is expressible as a union of k or fewer (d2)-dimenslonal manifolds, each containing q For S compact, if to every q E Q there corresponds a k > 0 such that q is an essential inc point of order k then...
