A singleton is allowed; a reversed interval record is unqualified. A positive convexity certificate must cover all endpoint pairs in the convex domain and every lambda in [0,1]. One Jensen violation can refute convexity, but one successful instance cannot prove it.
G001 — Use f(t)=a*t+b with coefficients [a,b]=[8, -2] and interval=[-22, 23]. Give (coefficients,interval,ordered nonempty domain?,f(lambda*x+(1-lambda)*y)=lambda*f(x)+(1-lambda)*f(y),qualified convex certificate?). A singleton is allowed; a reversed interval record is unqualified. A positive convexity certificate must cover all endpoint pairs in the convex domain and every lambda in [0,1]. One Jensen violation can refute convexity, but one successful instance cannot prove it.Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.
Before
declared interval record=[-22, 23]
After
ordered_nonempty=Yes;nondegenerate=Yes
Conditions: none
This nonempty-interval protocol uses lower≤upper;the nondegenerate certificate additionally needs lower<upper.A reversed record is unqualified,not a declaration that the abstract empty set is nonconvex.A singleton interval is convex.
Rule: interval_certificate_qualification_not_empty_set_nonconvexity · Uses: G001
Before
arbitrary x,y in [-22,23];0<=lambda<=1;z=lambda*x+(1-lambda)*y
After
z--22=lambda*(x--22)+(1-lambda)*(y--22)>=0;23-z=lambda*(23-x)+(1-lambda)*(23-y)>=0
Conditions: none
Both slacks are nonnegative sums,hence lower≤z≤upper for every endpoint pair and every permitted lambda.No sampling is used;endpoints and singleton cases are included.
Rule: interval_all_segments_slack_identity · Uses: G001, S001
Before
f(t)=(8)*t+(-2);z=lambda*x+(1-lambda)*y
After
f(z)=lambda*((8)*x+(-2))+(1-lambda)*((8)*y+(-2))
Conditions: none
Distributivity and lambda+(1−lambda)=1 give the affine Jensen identity,hence equality for every endpoint pair and weight on a qualified convex domain.An unqualified domain record does not invalidate the algebraic identity.
Rule: affine_distributive_all_weights_identity · Uses: G001, S002
S003 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.S002 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.S001 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.([8, -2], [-22, 23], Yes, f(lambda*x+(1-lambda)*y)=lambda*f(x)+(1-lambda)*f(y), Yes)
The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
