A convex subset X of a linear topological space is called compactly convex if there is a continuous compact-valued map $\Phi:X\to exp(X)$ such that $[x,y]\subset\Phi(x)\cup \Phi(y)$ for all $x,y\in X$. We prove that each convex subset of…

In this work, we introduce a new graph convexity, that we call Cycle Convexity, motivated by related notions in Knot Theory. For a graph $G=(V,E)$, define the interval function in the Cycle Convexity as $I_{cc}(S) = S\cup \{v\in V(G)\mid…

In this paper we are interested in "optimal" universal geometric inequalities involving the area, diameter and inradius of convex bodies. The term "optimal" is to be understood in the following sense: we tackle the issue of…
Archetypal analysis is an unsupervised learning method that uses a convex polytope to summarize multivariate data. For fixed $k$, the method finds a convex polytope with $k$ vertices, called archetype points, such that the polytope is…
Constrained Optimization solution algorithms are restricted to point based solutions. In practice, single or multiple objectives must be satisfied, wherein both the objective function and constraints can be non-convex resulting in multiple…

The convexity of a set can be generalized to the two weaker notions of reach and $r$-convexity; both describe the regularity of a set's boundary. For any compact subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$, we provide methods for computing upper bounds on…
