  1. Aug 16, 2019 · What you gave is the standard definition of a convex function. If $f$ is supposed to be continuous, it is enough to check that $$f\left(\frac{x+y}{2}\right) \le \frac{f(x)+f(y)}{2}$$ for all $x,y$. If $f$ is twice differentiable, it is enough to check that the second derivative is non negative.

  2. The book "Convex Optimization" by Boyd, available free online here, describes methods to check. The standard definition is if f(θx + (1 − θ)y) ≤ θf(x) + (1 − θ)f(y) for 0≤θ≤1 and the domain of x,y is also convex.

  3. I read this in wikipedia that a practical test for convexity is - to check whether the 2nd derivative (Hessian matrix) of a continuous differentiable function in the interior of the convex set is non-negative (positive semi-definite). So how to check for the convexity of functions like f(x) = |x| f (x) = | x | which is differentiable at all ...

  4. Jan 23, 2009 · The polygon is convex if the z-components of the cross products are either all positive or all negative. Otherwise the polygon is nonconvex. If there are N points, make sure you calculate N cross products, e.g. be sure to use the triplets (p [N-2],p [N-1],p [0]) and (p [N-1],p [0],p [1]).

  5. Dec 6, 2018 · I am working with a function I would like to check if it is convex or concave. The function is the next: f(x1,x2) = max{x61,ex1+3x22, 3x21 −x1x2 +x42 − log (x2 + 2)} f (x 1, x 2) = max {x 1 6, e x 1 + 3 x 2 2, 3 x 1 2 − x 1 x 2 + x 2 4 − log (x 2 + 2)} With x2> −2 x 2> − 2.

  6. Answer. Exercise \PageIndex {4} Prove that each of the following functions is convex on the given domain: f (x)=e^ {b x}, x \in \mathbb {R}, where b is a constant. f (x)=x^ {k}, x \in [0, \infty) and k \geq 1 is a constant. f (x)=-\ln (1-x), x \in (-\infty, 1).
