The points of local nonconvexity of starshaped sets
The notion of point of local nonconvexity has been an important tool in the study of the geometry of nonconvex sets, since Tietze characterized, more than fifty years ago, the convex subsets of En as those connected sets without points of local nonconvexity. It is proved here that for each convex co...
