You've got me curious.  I haven't yet located an adequate
introduction to the topic, so I'll ask *you* about the
basics:  do these (*semi*definite?) cones arise in financial
with time the privileged dimension?  Does "cone" here mean
necessarily with a quadratic cross-section?  If so, why is
that more compelling than the simplexes of more traditional
LP?
