Supporting functional
In convex analysis and mathematical optimization, the supporting functional is a generalization of the supporting hyperplane of a set.
Mathematical definition
Let X be a locally convex topological space, and be a convex set, then the continuous linear functional is a supporting functional of C at the point if and for every .[1]
Relation to support function
If (where is the dual space of ) is a support function of the set C, then if , it follows that defines a supporting functional of C at the point such that for any .
Relation to supporting hyperplane
If is a supporting functional of the convex set C at the point such that
then defines a supporting hyperplane to C at .[2]
gollark: I'm not really likely to *use* memtest86, netboot.xyz, or a UEFI shell, but it's slightly more convenient than needing to find a USB hard disk or my phone if I need to do something like that.
gollark: Oh, right, I have memtest86 there too.
gollark: Also, I occasionally muck with the kernel command line.
gollark: I have extra boot options for a UEFI shell and https://netboot.xyz/ booting.
gollark: Nicer configuration than GRUB.
