If every x ∈ C satisfies x + y ∈ C, then the translation of C by y stays in C.
If every x ∈ C satisfies x - y ∈ C, then C is contained in its translation by y.
Theorem 8.4.5. For any non-empty convex set C, the lineality space
lin(C) = (-0^+ C) ∩ 0^+ C equals { y ∈ ℝ^n | C + y = C }.
Definiton 8.4.6. Let C be a non-empty convex set with lineality space
