Abstract:Let $X$ be a Banach space and $f\in\mathcal{C}^1(X)$ be bounded from below. We show that if for some $m\geq 1$, the function $x\mapsto \|\nabla f(x)\|^m$ is convex, then $f$ is convex. We also establish a more general version of this result: if $f$ is continuous and bounded from below, then it is convex, provided $x\mapsto s_f(x)^m$ is convex for some $m\geq 1$, where $s_f$ denotes the (De Giorgi) metric slope of $f$.
