In geometry, a supporting hyperplane of a set <math>S</math> in Euclidean space <math>\mathbb R^n</math> is a hyperplane that has both of the following two properties:
- <math>S</math> is entirely contained in one of the two closed half-spaces bounded by the hyperplane
- <math>S</math> has at least one boundary-point on the hyperplane.
Here, a closed half-space is the half-space that includes the points within the hyperplane.
