Abstract
-convexity was defined in [7] as a suitable Kuratowski-Painlev\'e upper limit of linear convexities over a finite dimensional Euclidean vector space. Excepted in the special case where convex sets are subsets of , -convexity was not defined with respect to a given explicit algebraic structure. This is done in that paper, which proposes an extension of -convexity to the whole Euclidean vector space. An unital idempotent and non-associative magma is defined over the real set and an extended -ary operation is introduced. Along this line, the existence of the Kuratowski-Painlev\'e limit of the convex hull of two points over is shown and an explicit extension of -convexity is proposed.
