The condition number refers to the ratio between the circumradius and the inradius. We also study the eccentricity of a closed convex cone, which is a coefficient that measures to which extent the circumcenter differs from the incenter.application/pdfeng510Convex conecircumradiusinradiuscondition numbereccentricitysimplicial conesCondition number and eccentricity of a closed convex coneReport
