Convex set: Definitions, Properties & Convex hulls and Minkowski sums

In geometry, a set of points is convex if it contains every line segment between two points in the set. For example, a solid cube is a convex set, but anything that is hollow or has an indent, such as a crescent shape, is not convex.
