Closed Convex Hull
$begingroup$
Let $X$ be a topological vector space. For a countable subset subset $(a_n)_nsubset X$, can one describe the closed convex hull of $(a_n)_n$ as the set ${sum_{n=1}^{infty}c_na_n: 0leq c_nleq 1, text{and} sum_{n=1}^{infty}c_n=1}$ where the series converges?

@MartinR In your counter example, I think the convex set is not (norm) closed.

No.
Let $X=Bbb R$ and $a_n=1/n$ for $nge1$. The closed convex hull of the $a_n$ is $[0,1]$, but it's clear that $0nesum c_na_n$ with $c_nge0$, $sum c_n=1$.
