Which Nonnegative Matrices Are Slack Matrices?

In this paper we characterize the slack matrices of cones and polytopes among all nonnegative matrices. This leads to an algorithm for deciding whether a given matrix is a slack matrix. The underlying decision problem is equivalent to the polyhedral verifi cation problem whose complexity is unknown.
