Some results on quasipolyhedral convexity (Q2644431)

The article studies the closure of the class of quasipolyhedral convex functions under some basic operations. A convex function is called quasipolyhedral if intersections of its epigraph with polytopes yield polytopes. This generalizes the concept of polyhedral convex functions (whose epigraph is polyhedral). The operations studied in the article are those which are known to preserve polyhedral convexity, such as the image and the inverse image under linear transformations, right scalar multiplication and pointwise addition.
