The term convex function is used in mathematics. It is used to define an interval where the line segment between two points is above the graph, this can both be downward or upward.

Can you explain what convex optimization is?

What is a convex hexagon?

a polygon with 6 sides * * * * * The fact that is has six sides makes it a hexagon but that does not explain ""convex". A convex polygon is one in which none of the angles is a reflex angle. An alternative definition of convex is that a line joining any two points inside the hexagon is wholly inside the shape.


What is C1 convex function?

A C1 convex function is a type of convex function that is continuously differentiable, meaning it has a continuous first derivative. In mathematical terms, a function ( f: \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R} ) is convex if for any two points ( x, y ) in its domain and any ( \lambda ) in the interval [0, 1], the following holds: ( f(\lambda x + (1 - \lambda)y) \leq \lambda f(x) + (1 - \lambda)f(y) ). Additionally, the existence of a continuous first derivative ensures that the slope of the function does not have abrupt changes, maintaining the "smoothness" of its graph.

Explain how to tell whether a polygon is a convex?

If, for any two points A and B in the polygon, all points with position A + kB are inside the polygon for 0 ≤ k ≤ 1, then the polygon is convex. In simple terms, if all points on the line AB lie inside the polygon, it is convex. If there is at least one point on AB that is outside the polygon then it is not a convex polygon.
