A question about the logarithm of an arbitrary function Uncategorized Mar 26, 2019 F Farzali Izadi Mar 26, 2019 #1 Is in general the log of an arbitrary function a convex function? If yes, give me explicit results or any paper or book that answer this question. Thanks, Farzali M Mark L. Stone Mar 26, 2019 #2 No. log(x) is concave, and is not convex. That is a rather simple counterexample. log(f(x)) is concave if f(x) is concave.
