is the closed convex hull of its extreme points (the Krein-Milman theorem).

An exposed face of is the subset of points of where a linear functional achieves its minimum on . Thus, if is a linear functional on and , then is an exposed face of .

An exposed point of is a point such that is an exposed face of . That is, for all . See the figure for examples of extreme points that are not
