    Added cross-link with convex function.

    Also hyperlinked various keywords as well as some author names in the list of references.

  1. I changed the reference to Isbell article, for reference to proof that [0,1] is left-adequate, rather than the reference to my paper.

    Corrected

    A convex space is cancellative if y=zy = z whenever c p(x,y)=c p(x,z)c_p(x,y) = c_p(x,z) for some cc and p0p \ne 0.

    which should read

    A convex space is cancellative if y=zy = z whenever c p(x,y)=c p(x,z)c_p(x,y) = c_p(x,z) for some xx and p0p \ne 0.

  2. Added super convex space (link) in related concepts.

    Changed

    “The category of convex spaces is an algebraic theory”

    to something I know is true, namely

    “The category of convex spaces is the category of algebras of a Lawvere theory

    Pointed out that convex spaces are algebras of a commutative monad; gave references.
