Convex geometry has recently attracted great attention as a framework to formulate general probabilistic theories. In this framework, convex sets and affine maps represent the state spaces of physical systems and the possible dynamics, respectively. In the first part of this paper, we present a result on separation of simplices and balls (up to affine equivalence) among all compact convex sets in two- and three-dimensional Euclidean spaces, which focuses on the set of extreme points and the action of affine transformations on it. Regarding the above-mentioned axiomatization of quantum physics, our result corresponds to the case of simplest (2-level) quantum system. We also discuss a possible extension to higher dimensions. In the second part, towards generalizations of the framework of general probabilistic theories and several existing results including ones in the first part from the case of compact and finite-dimensional physical systems as in most of the literatures to more general cases, we study some fundamental properties of convex sets and affine maps that are relevant to the above subject.
For an infinite cardinal $kappa$ let $ell_2(kappa)$ be the linear hull of the standard othonormal base of the Hilbert space $ell_2(kappa)$ of density $kappa$. We prove that a non-separable convex subset $X$ of density $kappa$ in a locally convex line
We consider the problem of the semidefinite representation of a class of non-compact basic semialgebraic sets. We introduce the conditions of pointedness and closedness at infinity of a semialgebraic set and show that under these conditions our modif
It is known that the Frank-Wolfe (FW) algorithm, which is affine-covariant, enjoys accelerated convergence rates when the constraint set is strongly convex. However, these results rely on norm-dependent assumptions, usually incurring non-affine invar
In this paper we generalize the factorization theorem of Gouveia, Parrilo and Thomas to a broader class of convex sets. Given a general convex set, we define a slack operator associated to the set and its polar according to whether the convex set is
In this paper we consider convex co-compact subgroups of the projective linear group. We prove that such a group is relatively hyperbolic with respect to a collection of virtually Abelian subgroups of rank two if and only if each open face in the ide
