mtimes

PURPOSE ^

MTIMES Polytope multiplication

SYNOPSIS ^

function R=mtimes(P,Q,Options)

DESCRIPTION ^

MTIMES Polytope multiplication

 MTIMES Polytop multiplication

 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 DESCRIPTION
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
  Three cases could happen:
   1. Multiplication of two polytopes P1*P2 leads to a higher dimensional
      polytope [H1 0; 0 H2] <= [K1; K2]
   2. Multiplication of a polytope by a matrix -- this leads an affine
      transformation performed by range.m
   3. Multiplication of a polytope by a scalar -- if the origin is included
      in the polytope, the polytope will be shrinked

 USAGE:
   R = P1*P2
   R = P1*[1 0; 1 1]
   R = P1*alfa

 INPUT
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 P     - polytope / scalar / matrix
 Q     - polytope / scalar / matrix
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 OUTPUT                                                                                                    
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 R     - resulting polytope
