We begin with topological vector spaces (which are not necessarily locally convex) and a class of mappings between them defined by a certain functional inequality. We describe how their study led us to some results about Minkowski decomposability of finite-dimensional convex sets. In particular, we show that bounds on the number of vertices and edges of a polytope can force indecomposability.
