Given a homeomorphism one can define on the topological space X a set operator through the formula . Such a convexity on X has all the topological, geometric and algebraic properties of the usual convexity on ; up to a change of variable, it is a linear convexity. In the context of convex analysis and optimization theory such operators were considered by Avriel (1972) and Ben Tal (1977). We consider a sequence on homeomorphisms and we study the abstract convexity which is associated to the limit, in the appropriate sense, of the sequence of set operators ; we call the limit-convexity -convexity. On one can loosely say that this -convexity is obtained from the usual linear convexity through the formal substitution . We end this article with some simple applications to duality and “max-programming”.
