This book provides the solutions to all 347 exercises contained in the text Convexity from the Geometric Point of View, published in the same Cornerstones series. All these exercises are restated and numbered analogously to those in the original text. The corresponding solutions follow each exercise. Besides the discussion of all solutions, some additional facts about the main text are sprinkled throughout. Sections of further reading are posted to the ends of each chapter supplying the reader with background literature to selected notions and tools that play a role in the exercises and/or solutions to the chapter.
The original text gives a comprehensive introduction to the “common core” of convex geometry and is suitable as a primary text for courses in convex geometry and in discrete geometry (including polytopes). Additionally, it can be used as a single reference for a complete introduction to convex geometry. The content coverage is sufficiently broad that the reader may gain a glimpse of the entire breadth of the field, various subfields, and interesting connections to neighboring disciplines. Mainly directed to graduate and advanced undergraduates, the original text is self-contained in such a way that it can be read by anyone who has standard undergraduate knowledge of analysis and of linear algebra. The same is true for this book of solutions.

About the Author
Vitor Balestro is a Professor of Mathematics at Federal Fluminense University in Niterói, Brazil. He received his PhD in Mathematics from the same university in 2016. In Mathematics, his research interests include convex geometry, geometry of finite dimensional normed spaces, convex analysis and functional analysis. Outside of Mathematics, his main interests are computer programming, computer science, music, and literature.
Horst Martini Before his retirement in 2020, Horst Martini was Full Professor of Mathematics at the Chemnitz University of Technology in Germany (Chair of Geometry). After receiving his Ph.D. in Dresden, in 1988 he obtained his habilitation from the University of Jena, and in 1993 he received his position in Chemnitz. His research interests include convex geometry, discrete geometry, functional analysis, and classical subfields of geometry, as well as applications in optimization and related fields. He also studies certain fields in history of mathematics. For about fifteen years he was editor in chief f the Springer journal Contributions to Algebra and Geometry, and in 2015 he received an honorary professorship from the Harbin University f Science and Technology (China). His passions include travelling to interesting places of geographical and historical significance and studying different genres of good music.
Ralph Teixeira is a Professor of Mathematics at Federal Fluminense University in Niterói, Brazil. He received his PhD in Mathematics from Harvard University in 1998, and has since worked in many areas, including Mathematics applied to Computer Vision, Differential and Discrete Geometry, and lately Convex Geometry. Second to his wife, his main love is computer gaming, but he would never admit this in public.

Right of withdrawal
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
-
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
-
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
-
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
-
for delivery of newspapers, periodicals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts. The revocation right expires prematurely in case of contracts
-
for delivery of sealed products, which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after the delivery;
-
for delivery of products if they have been mixed inseparably with other goods after the delivery, owing to their condition;
-
for delivery of sound or video recording or computer software in a sealed package if the seal has been removed after the delivery.
