is there theorem relating second derivatives and convexity of functions?

Ruben Van de Velde (Jun 13 2024 at 18:38):

Something like
strictConvexOn_univ_of_deriv2_pos Mathlib.Analysis.Convex.Deriv

∀ {f : ℝ → ℝ}, Continuous f → (∀ (x : ℝ), 0 < deriv^[2] f x) → StrictConvexOn ℝ Set.univ f

?

yes thank you
