ChE 356

Calculating the partial derivatives gives. Evaluating the Hessian at the point (0, 0.5) gives. Because this matrix has a zero on the off diagonal, the eigenvalues are given by the values on the diagonal. With one positive eigenvalue and one negative eigenvalues, the matrix is indefinite, therefore the function is not convex at the point (0, 0.5 ... ................
