Abstract

We study continuity properties of law-invariant (quasi-)convex functions \({f:L^\infty(\Omega, \mathcal{F}, \mathbb{P}) \to (-\infty,\infty]}\) over a non-atomic probability space \({(\Omega, \mathcal{F}, \mathbb{P})}\). This is a supplementary note to Jouini et al. (Adv Math Econ 9:49–71, 2006).
