Acknowledgements

The authors have benefited, at the early stage of this work, of enlightening comments and exciting discussions with Guillaume Boisseau. In particular, Guillaume proposed several simplifications to the axiomatisations, showed us the first proof of the generalised spider and the one for its polar.

Abstract

We extend the theory of Interacting Hopf algebras with an order primitive, and give a sound and complete axiomatisation of the prop of polyhedral cones. Next, we axiomatise an affine extension and prove soundness and completeness for the prop of polyhedra.
