We establish the following max-plus analogue of Minkowski’s theorem. Any point of a compact max-plus convex subset of (R∪{−∞})n can be written as the max-plus convex combination of at most n + 1 of the extreme points of this subset. We establish related results for closed max-plus convex cones and closed unbounded max-plus convex sets. In particular, we show that a closed max-plus convex set ca...

In this paper some concepts of convex analysis are extended in an intrinsic way from the Euclidean space to the sphere. In particular, relations between convex sets in the sphere and pointed convex cones are presented. Several characterizations of the usual projection onto a Euclidean convex set are extended to the sphere and an extension of Moreau’s theorem for projection onto a pointed convex...
