A subset AA of R++n\mathbb{R}^{n}_{++} is B−1^{-1}-convex if for all x1,x2∈Ax_{1},x_{2}\in A and all t≥1t\geq1 one has tx1∧x2∈Atx_{1}\wedge x_{2}\in A. These sets were first investigated in papers of G. Adilov and I. Yesilce [``B−1−^{-1}-convex sets and B−1−^{-1}-measurable maps'', Numerical Functional Analysis and Optimization 33(2) (2012) 131–141; ``On Generalization of the Concept of Convexity'', Hacettepe Journal of Mathematics and Statistics 41(5) (2012) 723–730], and of W. Briec and Q. B. Liang [``On Some Semilattice Structures for Production Technologies'', European Journal of Operational Research 215 (2011) 740–749]. In this paper, we establish separation and a Hahn-Banach-like Theorem for B−1^{-1}-convex sets.
