Intersections of convex sets are convex
Any intersection of convex sets is convex
Intersections of convex sets are convex
Proposition. Let be a family of convex subsets of a vector space . Then the intersection is convex.
Context. This is fundamental for defining the convex hull as an intersection of all convex supersets and for building convex feasible regions from many convex constraints.
Proof sketch. If lie in every , then for each and each the point lies in by convexity. Hence it lies in the intersection.
