A rational polyhedral cone in $mathbbR^n$ is a set of the form
$$sigma=lambda_1x_1+dots+lambda_kx_kin mathbbR^nmid lambda_iin mathbbR_geq 0 ; ;forall , 1leq ileq k$$
for some $x_1,dots,x_kinmathbbZ^n$. If the set $x_1,dots,x_k$ can be extended to a basis of $mathbbZ^n$ we say that $sigma$ is a regular (or sometimes smooth) cone.



The dual cone of $sigma$ is the set defined as
$$sigma^vee=yinmathbbR^n mid langle x,yranglegeq 0, ; forall ,xin sigma$$
and it is also a rational polyhedral cone.



How can I show that $sigma$ regular $implies$ $sigma^vee$ regular? If someone has a reference would be good also.
