Convexity and a Stone-type theorem for convex sets in abelian semigroup setting

Abstract

In this paper, two parallel notions of convexity of sets are introduced in the abelian semigroup setting. The connection of these notions to algebraic and to set-theoretic operations is investigated. A formula for the computation of the convex hull is derived. Finally, a Stone-type separation theorem for disjoint convex sets is established.
