|  |  D.13.2.45 minkowskiSum Procedure from librarypolymake.lib(see  polymake_lib).
 
Example:Usage:
minkowskiSum(c,d); c cone, d cone
minkowskiSum(c,q); c cone, q polytope
 minkowskiSum(p,d); p polytope, d cone
 minkowskiSum(p,q); p polytope, q polytope
 
Assume:
input arguments have the same ambient dimension
Return:
cone, if both inputs are cones; polytope, otherwise
the minkowski sum of the two input arguments
