Apr 6, 2014 at 4:57 comment added Steven Stadnicki Your $B$ is not a convex set; in fact, for any two points $a, b\in B$ the line between $a$ and $b$ is not contained within $B$. If you instead define $B=\{(x, y) x\geq 0 \wedge y\geq 0\wedge xy\geq c\}$ then $B$ is convex, but that definition may not satisfy your needs.

Apr 5, 2014 at 20:06 comment added Math123 Let's say we have $A$ and $B$ as follows. Consider the functions $g(x,y)= xy$ and $f$ a differentiable function on $\mathbb{R}^2$. $A= \{X=\nabla f(u)~\hbox{for}~ u\in \mathbb{R}^2\}$ and $B= \{(x,y)~|~g(x,y)= c~\hbox{for some} c\in \mathbb{R}\}$. I don't know how I can input my constraints in numerical methods as I have infinite constrants...
Apr 5, 2014 at 19:59 comment added Vidit Nanda How are the convex sets represented combinatorially? Aside from special cases (eg intersection of half-spaces or vertices of polyhedra) I'm not quite sure what the "input" to your desired numerical methods are allowed to be.
Apr 5, 2014 at 19:56 comment added Math123 yes! numerical method should be ok for my case.
Apr 5, 2014 at 19:55 comment added András Bátkai This is a bit broad formulated... You mean a numerical method?
