Let $f : mathbbR^d rightarrow mathbbR$, be a convex function, so $forall x, y in mathbbR^d$
$$f(tx+(1-t)y) leq tf(x)+(1-t)f(y)$$
$t in[0,1]$. How do you show that $s(x) = f(x)-k$ also is convex ($kinmathbbR$)?



I only get:
$$s(tx+(1-t)y) leq tf(x)+(1-t)f(y) -k =ts(x)+(1-t)s(y)+k$$

          I think you just have an arithmetic error; namely,



          $$s(tx + (1-t)y) leq tf(x) + (1-t)f(y) - k = t(f(x)-k) + (1-t)(f(y)-k).$$
