Branch of geometry
In mathematics, convex geometry is the branch of geometry studying convex sets, mainly in Euclidean space. Convex sets occur naturally in many areas:
Convex_geometry
In geometry, set whose intersection with every line is a single line segment
In geometry, a set of points is convex if it contains every line segment between two points in the set. For example, a solid cube is a convex set, but
Convex_set
Smallest convex set containing a given set
In geometry, the convex hull, convex envelope or convex closure of a shape is the smallest convex set that contains it. The convex hull may be defined
Convex_hull
Polygon that is the boundary of a convex set
In geometry, a convex polygon is a polygon that is the boundary of a convex set. This means that the line segment between two points of the polygon is
