 Convex
For example, a solid cube is convex, but anything that is hollow or has a dent in it is not convex.
The intersection of any collection of convex sets is itself convex, so the convex subsets of a (real or complex) vector space form a complete lattice.
A convex function defined on some interval is continuous on the whole interval and differentiable at all but at most countably many points.

A central topic in the theory of locally convex spaces (and also in the theory of topological vector spaces) is the study of the relation of the space with its dual or adjoint space.
A notable role in the theory of locally convex spaces is played by methods of homological algebra connected with the study of the category of locally convex spaces and their continuous mappings, and also some subcategories of this category.
Locally convex spaces arise in great profusion throughout such fields of analysis as measure and integration theory, complex analysis in one, several or an infinite number of variables, partial differential equations, integral equations, approximation theory, operator and spectral theory, as well as probability theory.

In particular, the least upper bound of a family of locally convex topologies on a given vector space, the induced topology on a subspace and the topology of a product of locally convex topologies are projective topologies (and therefore locally convex topologies).
In particular, the quotient topology of a given locally convex topology and the topology of a direct sum of locally convex topologies are inductive topologies (and therefore locally convex topologies).
The concepts of projective and inductive locally convex topologies make it possible to define the operations of projective and inductive limits in the category of locally convex spaces and their linear mappings.

 Locally convex topological vector space - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Although in general such spaces are not necessarily normable, the existence of a convex local base for the zero vector is strong enough for the Hahn-Banach theorem to hold, yielding a sufficiently rich theory of continuous linear functionals.
In particular it is not locally convex, and its dual space is 0.
Because locally convex spaces are topological spaces as well as vector spaces, the natural functions to consider between two locally convex spaces are continuous linear maps.

General questions in the theory of locally convex lattices are the following: The study of the connections between topological properties and order properties; in particular, the topological properties of bands and positive cones in a locally convex lattice and connections between lattice properties and topological properties of completeness in a locally convex lattice.
The study of properties of the strong dual of a locally convex lattice and properties of the imbedding of a locally convex lattice
The most important example of a locally convex lattice is a Banach lattice.

 Annotated Bibliography on the Range of Vector Measures   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
Bazhenov (1986) gave a complete characterization of locally convex spaces to which he extended the theorem of Lyapunov.
Goller (1984) extended the convexity theorem of Lyapunov considering weak^*-continuous linear mappings of the dual space of a normed vector lattice into a topological Hausdorff space.
Kühn and Rösler (1998) showed that although convexity and compactness conclusions of Lyapunov's theorem may fail for measures defined on different sigma-algebras of the same set, they do hold if the sigma-algebras are nested, which is exactly the setting of classical optimal stopping theory.

 Determining Convexity of Polyhedra
A 3D simplicial polyhedron G is the surface of a convex polytope if and only if G is locally convex, and the projection of the seam of G is a globally convex polygon.
In addition, the z-projection of the seam of a convex polyhedron will also be convex, and so will the projection of the seam of G. See the diagram in the definitions for a better idea of why this might be so.
Going the other way is a little bit more difficult, where we're trying to show that a polyhedron G which is locally convex, with a seam z-projection which is itself a convex polygon, is the surface bounding a convex polytope (a convex polyhedron).

 [No title]
A topological vector space is "locally convex" if the origin has a basis of neighborhoods that are convex.
The dual V* of a locally convex topological vector space V naturally becomes a locally convex topological vector space with the so-called "weak topology".
By this means the space of distributions and the space of hyperfunctions on the circle become locally convex topological vector spaces.

 Augmented Uniform Polyhedra
(Care must be taken in the selection of the excavating polyhedron, it must itself be locally convex, it must have the requisite pyramidical symmetry (3-, 4- or 5-fold) and it must be sized such that the new vertices are visible on the exterior of the resulting polyhedron.) I term the convexity of these polyhedra 'potential'.
The excavation must be deep enough to re-create a (highly wound) locally convex vertex (with opposite polarity to the original).
The remaining excavations are deep enough to re-create a (highly wound) locally convex vertex (with opposite polarity to the original).

 Atlas: On locally quasi-convex groups by Elena Martin-Peinador   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
Locally quasi-convex groups were introduced by Vilenkin [5] in the 50's.
It is proved there that the class of locally quasi-convex groups contains the class of locally convex vector spaces.
Thus, locally quasi-convex groups are the natural generalization of the latter.

 Locally convex approach spaces by M. Sioen and S. Verwulgen   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
We continue the investigation of suitable structures for quantified functional analysis, by looking at the notion of local convexity in the setting of approach vector spaces as introduced in [Approach vector spaces].
We prove that the locally convex objects are exactly the ones generated (in the usual approach sense) by collections of seminorms.
Furthermore, we construct a quantified version of the projective tensor product and show that the locally convex objects admitting a decent exponential law with respect to it are precisely the seminormed spaces.

 AMCA: An Elementary Approach to Locally Convex Operator Spaces by Susanne Dierolf   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
The aim of this talk is to present an introduction to the theory of locally convex operator spaces which is completely elementary and utilizes only the standard tools of usual locally convex spaces - an introduction "from below".
It turns out that locally convex operator spaces can be treated very similarly to usual locally convex spaces and that most of the topics for locally convex spaces have an analogue in the category of locally convex operator spaces.

 DC MetaData for: Phelps' Lemma, Danes' Drop Theorem and Ekeland's Principle in Locally Convex Topological Vector Spaces   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
Abstract: We present a generalization of the Phelps lemma to locally convex topological vector spaces and show the equivalence of this theorem, Ekeland's principle and Danes' drop theorem in locally convex spaces to their Banach space counterparts and to a Pareto efficieny theorem due to Isac.
We show that another formulation of Ekeland's principle in locally convex spaces using a family of topology generating semi-norms as perturbation functions rather than a single (in general discontinuous) Minkowski functional turns out to be equivalent to the original version.

 The Locally Convex Topology on the Space of Meromorphic Functions   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
A Theorem of his that is related to the Mittag-Leffler theorem looks like a duality result under some locally convex topology on the space of meromorphic functions.
The main tool in the study of this topology is a projective description of it that is derived here.
We also argue that Holdgrun's topology is the natural locally convex topology on the space of meromorphic functions.
