Straszewicz's theorem
The set of Straszewicz ( English Straszewicz's theorem ) is a theorem of the mathematical area of convex geometry and as such located between the fields of geometry and analysis . It goes back to a scientific work of the mathematician Stefan Straszewicz from the year 1935. The Straszewicz'sche sentence is related to the Kerin-Milman theorem and deals with the question of what relationship in Euclidean space the exposed points and the extreme points of certain point sets another stand. As the theorem shows, for a large class of point sets the exposed points form a dense subset within the extremal points.
Formulation of the sentence
The sentence can be summarized as follows:
- The following always applies to a closed and convex subset :
- (i) Every extreme point of is the contact point of the set of exposed points of :
- .
- (ii) If this is a convex compact , then it even holds:
- .
Analog for standardized spaces
The American mathematician Victor Klee has in 1958 presented a set of the Straszewicz analogous result for the more general case where a normalized - vector space exists. This result is called the Klee – Straszewicz theorem and can be stated as follows:
- In a normalized - vector space holds for every compact and convex subset contained therein
- and
- .
Explanations and Notes
- An exposed point of is a point to which a - supporting hyperplane exists such that holds. The set of exposed points is denoted by.
- For a convex subset of , each of its exposed points is always also an extremal point and each of its extremal points is always also one of its edge points . So it applies in this case .
- The set of Straszewicz is in the monograph by Kurt Leichtweiß as a display set of Straszewicz denotes (wherein Leichtweiß refers only to the above amount equation).
