商品簡介
A monograph presenting the current state-of-the-art in the theory of convex structures. The notion of convexivity covered here is considerably broader than the classic one; specifically, it is not restricted to the context of vector spaces. Graphs appear side-by-side with Banach spaces, classical geometry with matroids, and ordered sets with metric spaces. A wide variety of results have been included (ranging, for instance, from the area of partition calculus to that of continuous selection). The tools involved are borrowed from areas ranging from discrete mathematics to infinite-dimensional topology. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
