Basis functions for approximation of a convex function on unit simplex
@user71040 We can assume the function to be bounded. I have added clarifications to the main question based on the comments above.

Basis functions for approximation of a convex function on unit simplex
Correct. To give some more background, I'm interested in uncertainty functions which are non-negative concave functions on the simplex (c.f. DeGroot: Optimal statistical decisions). I thought Shannon entropy might be an example familiar to most people.
