Structure of closed finitely starshaped sets mabel

A set S is finitely starshaped if any finite subset of S is totally visible from some point of S. It is well known that in a finite-dimensional linear space, a closed finitely starshaped set which is not starshaped must be unbounded. It is proved here that such a set must admit at least one directio...
