Fig. 1.2. <strong>Convex</strong> <strong>and</strong> strictly convex functions<br />

Thus f is convex if any line segment in E d × R with endpoints on the graph of f<br />

is on or above the graph of f .Call f strictly convex if C is convex (not necessarily<br />

strictly) <strong>and</strong><br />

f � (1 − λ)x + λy �
