In the cases of convex and strongly convex functions this weakens the well-known openness assumption on the convex sets. We also show that, in a certain sense, the full dimensionality assumption cannot be weakened further. In the case of strictly convex functions we weaken the well-known sufficient C2 −condition for strict convexity to a characterization. Several examples illustrate the results.}, doi = {10.4467/20838476SI.12.004.0814}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/schedae-informaticae/article/twice-differentiable-characterizations-of-convexity-notions-for-functions-on-full-dimensional-convex-sets} }
