Etymology
The term 'convex' originates from the Latin word 'convexus', which means 'arched' or 'hollowed out'. It is derived from 'con-', meaning 'with' or 'together', and 'vexare', meaning 'to shake' or 'to disturb'. The adverb form 'convexly' evolved from the adjective 'convex' in the early 20th century as mathematical theories and geometric analyses became more advanced. The usage expanded especially within the fields of mathematics and physics, where the properties of convex shapes and functions are critical in optimization problems and graphical analyses. Over time, the term has become standardized in mathematical literature, describing essential characteristics of shapes, curves, and surfaces in various applications from architecture to economics.
