Choquet theory
In mathematics, Choquet theory, named after Gustave Choquet, is an area of functional analysis and convex analysis concerned with measures which have support on the extreme points of a convex set C. Roughly speaking, every vector of C should appear as a weighted average of extreme points, a concept made more precise by generalizing the notion of weighted average from a convex combination to an integral taken over the set E of extreme points. Carathéodory's theorem (convex hull) and Choquet theory are convex hulls.

Compact space
In mathematics, specifically general topology, compactness is a property that seeks to generalize the notion of a closed and bounded subset of Euclidean space.

Conical combination
Given a finite number of vectors x_1, x_2, \dots, x_n in a real vector space, a conical combination, conical sum, or weighted sumConvex Analysis and Minimization Algorithms by Jean-Baptiste Hiriart-Urruty, Claude Lemaréchal, 1993,, Mathematical Programming, by Melvyn W. Jeter (1986), of these vectors is a vector of the form where \alpha_i are non-negative real numbers.

Convex combination
In convex geometry and vector algebra, a convex combination is a linear combination of points (which can be vectors, scalars, or more generally points in an affine space) where all coefficients are non-negative and sum to 1. Carathéodory's theorem (convex hull) and convex combination are convex hulls.
