Affine spaces are convex spaces

This file shows that every affine space is a convex space.

Main results

• AddTorsor.toConvexSpace: An affine space over a module is a convex space.
• AddTorsor.sConvexComb_eq_affineCombination: The convex combination equals the affine combination.
• AddTorsor.convexCombPair_eq_lineMap: Binary convex combinations are given by lineMap.

noncomputable def AddTorsor.convexCombination {R : Type u_1} {V : Type u_2} {P : Type u_3} [Ring R] [PartialOrder R] [AddCommGroup V] [Module R V] [AddTorsor V P] (s : Convexity.StdSimplex R P) : P

The convex combination of points in an affine space, given a probability distribution.

Any affine space is a convex space.

This is not an instance because its convex combination operation is defined through the choice of an arbitrary basepoint, which makes it very diamond-prone.

Equations

• AddTorsor.toConvexSpace = { sConvexComb := AddTorsor.convexCombination, sConvexComb_single := ⋯, assoc := ⋯ }

ConvexSpace.sConvexComb in an affine space is the affine combination.
