Every bounded convex open set Ω of is endowed with its Hilbert metric . We give a necessary and sufficient condition, called quasisymmetric convexity, for this metric space to be hyperbolic. As a corollary, when the boundary is real analytic, Ω is always hyperbolic. In dimension 2, this condition is: in affine coordinates, the boundary ∂Ω is locally the graph of a C strictly convex function whose derivative is quasisymmetric.
