Stability of convex sets and applications

  • 1. Steklov Mathematical Institute, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow (Russian Federation)

Description

We briefly review the results related to the notion of stability of convex sets and consider some of their applications. We prove a corollary of the stability property which enables us to develop an approximation technique for concave functions on a wide class of convex sets. This technique yields necessary and sufficient conditions for the local continuity of concave functions. We describe some examples of their applications.
