Topological properties of convex sets #
We prove the following facts:
Convex.interior: interior of a convex set is convex;Convex.closure: closure of a convex set is convex;closedConvexHull_closure_eq_closedConvexHull: the closed convex hull of the closure of a set is equal to the closed convex hull of the set;Set.Finite.isCompact_convexHull: convex hull of a finite set is compact;Set.Finite.isClosed_convexHull: convex hull of a finite set is closed.

If x โ closure s and y โ interior s, then the segment (x, y] is included in interior s.
If x โ s and y โ interior s, then the segment (x, y] is included in interior s.
If x โ closure s and x + y โ interior s, then x + t y โ interior s for t โ (0, 1].
If x โ s and x + y โ interior s, then x + t y โ interior s for t โ (0, 1].
In a topological vector space, the interior of a convex set is convex.
In a topological vector space, the closure of a convex set is convex.
A convex set s is strictly convex provided that for any two distinct points of
s \ interior s, the line passing through these points has nonempty intersection with
interior s.
A convex set s is strictly convex provided that for any two distinct points x, y of
s \ interior s, the segment with endpoints x, y has nonempty intersection with
interior s.
The convex closed hull of a set s is the minimal convex closed set that includes s.

Convex hull of a finite set is closed.
If we dilate the interior of a convex set about a point in its interior by a scale t > 1,
the result includes the closure of the original set.
