In the proof of Exercise 2.3, I don't understand : we have $g\left(x{\theta}\right) = \left(1-\theta\right)g\left(x{1}\right) + \theta g\left(x{2}\right)$. I guess you mean $g\left(x{\theta}\right) \in \Gamma\left(x_{\theta}\right)$?

Also, I believe that you forgot to mention the assumption that $f(.)$ is concave. Also, you might need to state the space of (weakly?) concave functions is closed.

Exercise 2.5, point 2: Showing that the counterexaample of point 1 does not work is not enough, no? You also need to prove that there is no counterexample. Here you can use the answer to 2.4, point 1.
