Abstract :
Location problems are of great use. People carry on them by metrically convex functions. In the paper we study non-discrete spaces such as computer network. We obtain a conclusion similar to Theorem Brondsted-Rockafellar and the characterization of metrically convex functions by introducing d-subdifferential.
