The video tutorial discusses concavity and how to identify points of inflection on a graph. It explains that non-differentiable points, such as corners or cusps, are potential points of inflection. The tutorial also covers how to analyze slopes to determine actual points of inflection, focusing on changes in concavity and slope direction.
