NOTION IN TOPOLOGICAL VECTOR SPACES
Convex envelope; Closed convex hull; Convex Hull; Convex span; Convex closure; Minimum convex polygon; Applications of convex hulls
In geometry, the convex hull or convex envelope or convex closure of a shape is the smallest convex set that contains it. The convex hull may be defined either as the intersection of all convex sets containing a given subset of a Euclidean space, or equivalently as the set of all convex combinations of points in the subset.
