from application polytope

Polytope propagation means to define a polytope inductively by assigning vectors to arcs of a directed graph. At each node of such a graph a polytope arises as the joint convex hull of the polytopes at the translated sources of the inward pointing arcs. For details see

Joswig: Polytope Propagation on Graphs.
Chapter 6 in Pachter/Sturmfels: Algebraic Statistics for Computational Biology, Cambridge 2005.
Type Parameters:

Scalar: numeric data type used for the coordinates, must be an ordered field. Default is Rational.
