What is the first order characterization of convexity?
First-order characterization: suppose that f is differentiable (and write ∇f for its gradient).
Then f is convex if and only if dom(f) is convex, and for all x, y ∈ dom(f), f(y) ≥ f(x) + ∇f(x)T (y − x).How do you prove convexity?
To prove convexity, you need an argument that allows for all possible values of x1, x2, and λ, whereas to disprove it you only need to give one set of values where the necessary condition doesn't hold.
Example 2.
Show that every affine function f(x) = ax + b, x ∈ R is convex, but not strictly convex.A standard way to prove that a set (or later, a function) is convex is to build it up from simple sets for which convexity is known, by using convexity preserving operations.
We present some of the basic operations below: Intersection If C, D are convex sets, then C ∩ D is also convex.
What is 1st order convexity?
The first order condition for convexity says that f is convex if and only if the tangent line is a global underestimator of the function f.
In other words, if we take our function and draw a tangent line at any point, then every point on this line will lie below the corresponding point on f.19 oct. 2007
