Given a separated dual system (E, E'), the Fenchel transform determines a pairing of the convex functions on E with the convex functions on E'. This operation is shown to have a continuity property.

Matrix inequalities and convex functions constitute a central theme in modern mathematical analysis, with far‐reaching implications across numerical analysis, optimisation, quantum information, and ...
