Candela frequency and that has a radiant intensity in that direction of watt per steradian. The definition describes how to produce a light source that (by definition) emits one candela, but does not specify the luminosity function for weighting radiation at other frequencies. Such a source could then be used to calibrate instruments designed to measure luminous intensity with reference to a specified luminosity function. An appendix to the SI Brochure makes it clear that the luminosity function is not uniquely specified, but must be selected to fully define the candela. The candela is sometimes still called by the old name
Convex measure Convex measure In measure and probability theory in mathematics, a convex measure is a probability measure that — loosely put — does not assign more mass to any intermediate set “between” two measurable sets "A" and "B" than it does to "A" or "B" individually. There are multiple ways in which the comparison between the probabilities of "A" and "B" and the intermediate set can be made, leading to multiple definitions of convexity, such as log-concavity, harmonic convexity, and so on. The mathematician Christer Borell was a pioneer of the detailed study of convex measures on locally convex spaces in
