In linear algebra, a cone—sometimes called a linear cone to distinguish it from other sorts of cones—is a subset of a real vector space that is closed under positive scalar multiplication; that is, is a cone if implies for every positive scalar . This is a broad generalization of the standard cone in Euclidean space.
