Convex Optimization - Polyhedral Set
A set in $mathbb{R}^n$ is said to be polyhedral if it is the intersection of a finite number of closed half spaces, i.e.,
$S=left { x in mathbb{R}^n:p_{i}^{T}xleq alpha_i, i=1,2,....,n ight }$
For example,
$left { x in mathbb{R}^n:AX=b ight }$
$left { x in mathbb{R}^n:AXleq b ight }$
$left { x in mathbb{R}^n:AXgeq b ight }$
Polyhedral Cone
A set in $mathbb{R}^n$ is said to be polyhedral cone if it is the intersection of a finite number of half spaces that contain the origin, i.e., $S=left { x in mathbb{R}^n:p_{i}^{T}xleq 0, i=1, 2,... ight }$
Polytope
A polytope is a polyhedral set which is bounded.
Remarks
A polytope is a convex hull of a finite set of points.
A polyhedral cone is generated by a finite set of vectors.
A polyhedral set is a closed set.
A polyhedral set is a convex set.
