concaveness
In mathematics, concaveness or concavity refers to the shape of a curve or function. A function is said to be concave if it bends inwards, similar to the inside surface of a sphere or a bowl. More formally, a function is considered concave if, for any two points in its domain, all points on the line segment connecting these two points lie above or on the graph of the function. It can also be defined in terms of its second derivative being less than or equal to zero. Conversely, a function that bends outwards is called convex. Concaveness is an important concept in fields like calculus, optimization, and economics.
