Star-convex sets

This files defines star-convex sets (aka star domains, star-shaped set, radially convex set).

A set is star-convex at x if every segment from x to a point in the set is contained in the set.

This is the prototypical example of a contractible set in homotopy theory (by scaling every point towards x), but has wider uses.

Note that this has nothing to do with star rings, Star and co.

Main declarations

• StarConvex 𝕜 x s: s is star-convex at x with scalars 𝕜.

Implementation notes

Instead of saying that a set is star-convex, we say a set is star-convex at a point. This has the advantage of allowing us to talk about convexity as being "everywhere star-convexity" and of making the union of star-convex sets be star-convex.

Incidentally, this choice means we don't need to assume a set is nonempty for it to be star-convex. Concretely, the empty set is star-convex at every point.

TODO

Balanced sets are star-convex.

The closure of a star-convex set is star-convex.

Star-convex sets are contractible.

A nonempty open star-convex set in ℝ^n is diffeomorphic to the entire space.
