Closedness of finitely generated cones

ID: closedness-of-finitely-generated-cones

A finitely generated cone is a closed convex cone. For a convergent sequence of represented vectors, use linearly independent active generators and pass to a subsequence with the same active set. Its coefficients converge through a fixed left inverse and retain nonnegativity. General linear images of closed cones need not be closed; finiteness of the generators supplies the missing argument.
