 These libraries are packed together with the polymake distribution, thanks to license agreements and/or kind allowance of the authors. You don't have to download and install them separately. We are keeping track of their further development and always include the most recent versions available at the moment of making the current polymake release.

   .. Contains the double description method (dual Fourier-Motzkin) for convex hull and vertex enumeration, as well as a dual simplex LP solver, both implemented for floating-point and unlimited precision rational numbers.
   ** <BOOKMARK:jreality>''jreality'': Provides an interface to [[http://www3.math.tu-berlin.de/jreality/|jReality]] (by Charles Gunn, Tim Hoffmann, Markus Schmies, Steffen Weissmann et al., [[http://www3.math.tu-berlin.de/geometrie/lab/index.shtml|Geometry Group]], TU Berlin).\\ Needs [[http://ant.apache.org/|ant]] to be built.
   .. High-end visualization in 3D (experimental). A stable snapshot of jReality source code is bundled with polymake.  You don't need to download it separately unless you will try a most recent version of it.
-  .. **Packages:** This interface usually disabled when installing polymake via the package manager (on Debian, Fedora, Gentoo, macOS (brew + bundle), Ubuntu).

   ** <BOOKMARK:Normaliz>''libnormaliz'': Computations with affine monoids.\\ Provides an interface to [[https://www.normaliz.uni-osnabrueck.de|Normaliz]] (by [[http://www.home.uni-osnabrueck.de/wbruns/|Winfried Bruns]], Bogdan Ichim and Christof Söger).
   .. Normaliz is a tool for computations in affine monoids, vector configurations, lattice polytopes, and rational cones. Since version 2.8 it comes with a very fast parallelized algorithm for lattice point enumeration.

   .. An implementation of Fourier-Motzkin elimination. This program seems not to be further developed nor maintained any more; moreover, the limited precision arithmetic used in it makes it fail in ways hard to predict or analyze. This is why its use is heavily **deprecated**. We offer an interface mostly for historical reasons.
