Abstract:

Let $S \subset {R^3}$ and let $C(S)$ denote the points of local convexity of $S$. One interesting result which is proven is Theorem. Let $S \subset {R^3}$ be such that $S \subset \operatorname {cl} (C(S)),S$ not planar and $C(S)$ is connected. Then $S \subset \operatorname {cl} (\operatorname {int} S)$.
