Rank zero forces dim_f to be at most the lineality.
Proper convexity implies the effective domain is nonempty.
Points outside the affine span of the effective domain are not in the effective domain.
Values of the recession function are finite on its lineality space.
Rank zero identifies the affine-span direction with the span of the lineality space, provided the inclusion is available.
If x0 and x0 + y are in the effective domain, then y is a direction of its affine span.
Additive majorants keep lineality directions inside the effective domain.
If lineality directions preserve the effective domain, then their span lies in the direction of the affine span of the effective domain.
Membership in the affine span is equivalent to membership in the translated direction.
Lineality is symmetric under negation.
Lineality directions give additivity of f0_plus.
If the lineality space is nonempty, then f0_plus 0 = 0.
The lineality relation extends to the linear span of the lineality space.
On the span of its lineality space, f0_plus agrees with a linear functional.
Rank zero should force affine behavior on the affine span of the effective domain.
Theorem 8.9.3. The proper convex functions of rank 0 are the partial affine functions,
i.e. the functions which agree with an affine function along a certain affine set and are
⊤ elsewhere.
Rank equals dimension iff the lineality is zero, provided the lineality is bounded.
Lineality zero iff there is no nonzero affine direction.
Theorem 8.9.4. A closed proper convex function f has rank f = dim f if and only if
it is not affine along any line in dom f.
If the recession cone equals the set, then the lineality space is C ∩ -C.
The lineality space of the indicator function of the image of C is the image of C ∩ -C.
Finrank of the span is preserved under a linear equivalence.
Theorem 8.9.5. The rank of a convex set C equals the rank of its indicator function.
