Greene and Wu have shown that any continuous strongly convex function on a Riemannian manifold can be uniformly approximated by infinitely differentiable strongly convex functions. This result is not true if the word “strongly” is omitted; in this paper, we give examples of manifolds on which convex functions cannot be approximated by convex functions (k = 0, 1,2,...).
