Let E be a real Hausdorff topological vector space. The asymptotic cone of \(A\subseteq E\) is \(A_{\infty}=\cap \overline{\{[0,\epsilon].A:\quad \epsilon >0\}}.\) For \(j\geq 0\), a j-asymptote of A is a j-dimensional affine manifold V in E such that \(A\cap V=\emptyset\) and \(0\in \overline{A-V}.\) A is hyperbolic if there is a bounded set \(B\subseteq E\) such that \(A\subseteq B+A_{\infty}.\) Convex hyperbolic subsets of E, E as above, a locally convex topological vector space or a normed space, are studied and in the latter case characterized. Also, j-asymptotes of such sets are considerd and used to show the existence of solutions for certain systems of vector-valued linear inequalities. Several examples are presented.
