On the extreme points of two convex sets

Let $A$ and $B$ be two compact convex sets (which may be assumed to be polytopes) in $\mathbb R^n$ such that $A\cap B\ne\emptyset$. Is it then always true that either $A\cap\text{ext}B\ne\emptyset$ ...

Extreme points of an intersection of convex set with countably many linear spaces

Let $V$ be some `nice' vector space and let $T: V\to \mathbb{R}$ be a linear functional over $V$. Define \begin{align} M= K \cap \bigcup_{i \in \mathbb{N} } \{ v \in V: T(v)=c_i \} \end{align} ...

Does Every Extreme Point Maximize Some Linear Functional

Let $L^2$ be the set of all square-integrable functions $f:[0,1] \to [0,1]$ and $S \subset L^2$ be a closed and convex subset of $L^2$ containing the function that is constant and equal to zero. Are ...
