Is the product of L2 norm and L-infinity norm convex?
$begingroup$
Let $x in mathbb{R}^n$ be an vector, and $f(x) = ||x||_2 cdot ||x||_infty$, I was wondering if $f(x)$ is a convex function?
Thanks!

Could you give some context? Why is this question interesting? Have you tried anything? Also it is not clear what $x$ is.

One can find a counterexample: $x,yinBbb{R}^n$ (with some large enough $n$) and $lambdain[0,1]$ such that $f(lambda x+(1-lambda)y)>lambda f(x)+(1-lambda)f(y)$.
