Near convexity, metric convexity, and convexity
It is shown that a subset of a uniformly convex normed space is nearly convex if and only if its closure is convex. Also, a normed space satisfying a mild completeness property is strictly convex if and only if every metrically convex subset is convex. 1 Classical and constructive mathematics The arguments in this paper conform to constructive mathematics in the sense of Errett Bishop. This mea...
متن کاملConvexity and Geodesic Metric Spaces
In this paper, we first present a preliminary study on metric segments and geodesics in metric spaces. Then we recall the concept of d-convexity of sets and functions in the sense of Menger and study some properties of d-convex sets and d-convex functions as well as extreme points and faces of d-convex sets in normed spaces. Finally we study the continuity of d-convex functions in geodesic metr...
متن کاملProjective Convexity in P Implies Grassmann Convexity
In this note we introduce the notion of Grassmann convexity analogous to the wellknown notion of convexity for curves in real projective spaces. We show that the curve in G2,4 osculating to a convex closed curve in P is Grassmann-convex. This proves that the tangent developable (i.e. the hypersurface formed by all tangents) of any convex curve in P has the ‘degree’ equal to 4. Here by ‘degree’ ...
متن کاملMetric convexity in the symplectic category
We introduce an extension of the standard Local-to-Global Principle used in the proof of the convexity theorems for the momentum map to handle closed maps that take values in a length metric space. This extension is used to study the convexity properties of the cylinder valued momentum map introduced by Condevaux, Dazord, and Molino in [8] and allows us to obtain the most general convexity stat...
متن کاملBall Versus Distance Convexity of Metric Spaces
We consider two different notions of convexity of metric spaces, namely (strict/uniform) ball convexity and (strict/uniform) distance convexity. Our main theorem states that (strict/uniform) distance convexity is preserved under a fairly general product construction, whereas we provide an example which shows that the same does not hold for (strict/uniform) ball convexity, not even when consider...
