Singular Manual: normalFanL

| #### D.13.2.4 normalFanL Procedure from library `polymake.lib` (see polymake_lib). Usage: normalFanL (vert,aff,graph,rays,[,#]); vert,aff intmat, graph list, rays int, # string Assume: - vert is an integer matrix whose rows are the coordinate of the vertices of a convex lattice polytope; - aff describes the affine hull of this polytope, i.e. the smallest affine space containing it, in the following sense: denote by n the number of columns of vert, then multiply aff by (1,x(1),...,x(n)) and set the resulting terms to zero in order to get the equations for the affine hull; - the ith entry of graph is an integer vector describing to which vertices the ith vertex is connected, i.e. a k as entry means that the vertex vert[i] is connected to vert[k]; - the integer rays is either one (if the extreme rays should be computed) or zero (otherwise) Return: list, the ith entry of L[1] contains information about the cone in the normal fan dual to the ith vertex of the polytope L[1][i][1] = integer matrix representing the inequalities which describe the cone dual to the ith vertex L[1][i][2] = a list which contains the inequalities represented by L[i][1] as a list of strings, where we use the variables x(1),...,x(n) L[1][i][3] = only present if 'er' is set to 1; in that case it is an interger matrix whose rows are the extreme rays of the cone L[2] = is an integer matrix whose rows span the linearity space of the fan, i.e. the linear space which is contained in each cone Note: - the procedure calls for its computation polymake by Ewgenij Gawrilow, TU Berlin and Michael Joswig, so it only works if polymake is installed; see http://www.polymake.org/ - in the optional argument # it is possible to hand over other names for the variables to be used -- be careful, the format must be correct and that is not tested, e.g. if you want the variable names to be u00,u10,u01,u11 then you must hand over the string u11,u10,u01,u11 Example:
