Description

• 

This command computes the polar dual of the polyhedral set polyset.

Examples

withPolyhedralSets:

The dual of the cube is an octahedron

cubeExampleSets:-Cube:cube_dualDualSetcube:Plotcube_dual

DualSet is an involution for bounded sets that include the origin, that is taking the dual of octahedron yields the original cube

cube_dual_dualDualSetcube_dual:Plotcube_dual_dual

The dual of the dual of a half-space, on the other hand, does not yield the original set.
