TY - GEN A1 - Bosse, Hartwig A1 - Grötschel, Martin A1 - Henk, Martin T1 - Polynomial Inequalities Representing Polyhedra N2 - Our main result is that every $n$-dimensional polytope can be described by at most $2n-1$ polynomial inequalities and, moreover, these polynomials can explicitly be constructed. For an $n$-dimensional pointed polyhedral cone we prove the bound $2n-2$ and for arbitrary polyhedra we get a constructible representation by $2n$ polynomial inequalities.
