ACAMiMM Summerschool 2011 for students
At a summer school in Bydgoszcz, September 4-18, 2011, Professor Roman Ger talked about convexity in the following way:
"Convexity is a beautiful lady -- and I am a silent admirer of her".
In full agreement with his statement I drew at the beginning of my lectures on "Calculus of Variations and Applications to Elasticity" the following picture on the blackboard and said
"Convexity is truly a beautiful lady -- but do you also know her beautiful sisters?"
The picture found its way into the journal Macierzator 40 edited by the mathematics students at the Silesian University in Katowice. I am very grateful to them.
