Exposed point

In mathematics, an exposed point of a convex set

at which some continuous linear functional attains its strict maximum over

[1] Such a functional is then said to expose

There can be many exposing functionals for

A stronger notion is that of strongly exposed point of

such that some exposing functional

attains its strong maximum over

The set of all strongly exposed points of

There are two weaker notions, that of extreme point and that of support point of
