    Convex Set

    Alternate names

    convex downward function

    Results

    Let f(x) be a real-valued function and let I be an interval. If the graph of f(x) lies above all of its tangent lines on I, then f(x) is concave upward on I.

    A set is a collection of objects (often numbers). These objects are called the elements of the set.
