Zero Bregman distance and supporting faces
ID: zero-bregman-distance-and-supporting-faces
For , zero Bregman distance means that equals the supporting affine function . If is strictly convex, two distinct contact points are impossible: convexity along their segment would be strict, while the subgradient inequality supplies the opposite bound. Thus zero distance then implies . Without strict convexity, , , gives zero distance for every . These are all on the same supporting face.
