Notes on the trace problem for separately convex functions

Abstract: We discuss the following question: For a function f of two or more variables which is convex in the directions of coordinate axes, how can its trace g(x) = f(x, x, ..., x) look like? In the two-dimensional case, we provide some necessary and sufficient conditions, as well as some examples illustrating that our approach does not seem to be appropriate for finding a characterization in full generality. For a concave function g, however, a characterization in the two-dimensional case is established.
