A set not contained in the relative boundary is nonempty.

A relative interior point has a smaller ball in the affine span contained in the relative interior.

Under the corollary hypotheses, the relative interiors of C1 and C2 intersect.

Relative interiors of two convex sets coincide with the relative interior of their intersection when their relative interiors meet.

Corollary 6.5.2. Let C1 be a convex set. Let C2 be a convex set contained in cl C1 but not entirely contained in the relative boundary of C1. Then ri C2 ⊆ ri C1.

Linear maps send closures into the closure of the image.

Linear images of relative interior points stay in the relative interior of the image.

Linear images of a convex set and its relative interior have the same closure.

The relative interior of a linear image lies in the image of the relative interior.

Theorem 6.6: Let C be a convex set in R^n, and let A be a linear transformation from R^n to R^m. Then ri (A C) = A (ri C) and cl (A C) ⊇ A (cl C).

Relative interior commutes with LinearMap.lsmul as a linear image.

The image of a set under LinearMap.lsmul is pointwise scalar multiplication.

Corollary 6.6.1. For any convex set C and any real number λ, ri (λ C) = λ ri C.
