Which of the following sets are convex? (You need to justify your
answer with clear logical reasoning.)
(a)
The set of points closer to a given point than a given set, i.e.,
{x| ||X-X0||2||x-y||2 Vy € S},
(b)
(c)
where SCR".
The set of points closer to one set than another, i.e.,
{x dist(x, S) < dist(x, T)},
where S, TCR, and
The set

S = {x| (x + y) E S₁, Vy S₂},
where S₁, S₂R" with S₁ convex.
(d)
The set of points whose distance to a point a does not exceed a fixed fraction
0 ≤0 ≤ 1 of the distance to another point b, i.e., the set
{x| ||xa||2 ≤0|x - b||2}.
