On Computing the Minkowski Difference of Zonotopes

Zonotopes are becoming an increasingly popular set representation for formal verification techniques. This is mainly due to their efficient representation and their favorable computational complexity of important operations in high-dimensional spaces. In particular, zonotopes are closed under Minkowski addition and linear maps, which can be very efficiently implemented. Unfortunately, zonotopes are not closed under Minkowski difference for dimensions greater than two. However, we present an algo...
