Convexity
51Convex — A convex set. The word convex means curving out or bulging outward, as opposed to concave. Convex or convexity may refer to: Mathematics: Convex set, a set of points containing all line segments between each pair of its points Convex function, a… …
52Option-adjusted spread — (OAS) is the flat spread which has to be added to the treasury yield curve in a pricing model (that accounts for embedded options) to discount a security payment to match its market price. OAS is hence model dependent. This concept can be applied …
53John von Neumann — Von Neumann redirects here. For other uses, see Von Neumann (disambiguation). The native form of this personal name is Neumann János. This article uses the Western name order. John von Neumann …
54Convex optimization — Convex minimization, a subfield of optimization, studies the problem of minimizing convex functions over convex sets. Given a real vector space X together with a convex, real valued function defined on a convex subset of X, the problem is to find …
55Convex metric space — An illustration of a convex metric space. In mathematics, convex metric spaces are, intuitively, metric spaces with the property any segment joining two points in that space has other points in it besides the endpoints. Formally, consider a… …
56Differential geometry of surfaces — Carl Friedrich Gauss in 1828 In mathematics, the differential geometry of surfaces deals with smooth surfaces with various additional structures, most often, a Riemannian metric. Surfaces have been extensively studied from various perspectives:… …
57Microeconomics — The supply and demand model describes how prices vary as a result of a balance between product availability at each price (supply) and the desires of those with purchasing power at each price (demand). The graph depicts a right shift in demand… …

59Jensen's inequality — In mathematics, Jensen s inequality, named after the Danish mathematician Johan Jensen, relates the value of a convex function of an integral to the integral of the convex function. It was proved by Jensen in 1906 [Jensen, J. Sur les fonctions… …
60Locally convex topological vector space — In functional analysis and related areas of mathematics, locally convex topological vector spaces or locally convex spaces are examples of topological vector spaces (TVS) which generalize normed spaces. They can be defined as topological vector… …
