Tartalmi kivonat:The notion of //-convexity is a generalized convexity notion with many metrical and combinatorial applications (e.g., in distance geometry, combinatorial geometry, Minkowski geometry, and abstract convexity), and Hconvex sets are simply defined with the help of a finite or infinite system H of unit vectors in Euclidean n-space. In [7], [8], and [9] we investigated non-onesided, so-called M-complete systems of unit vectors and some of their applications in combinatorial geometry. In particular, we established a condition under which the vector (or Minkowski) sum of any two H-convex sets is again H-convex, and conditions for //-separability of H-convex sets. In both cases the notion of M-completeness, defined for the vector systems H , plays the key role. Here we study properties of maximal non-onesided, M - complete vector systems H and H in the unit sphere S n_1 , which means that any non-onesided, M-complete vector system containing them coincides with n_1 . On the other hand, we prove for closed systems, which are symmetric with respect to the origin, that the systems H and H are also universal, i.e., under some natural condition every non-onesided, M-complete vector system distinct from S n _ 1 is contained in H or in H. Some examples illustrate the obtained results.
