Abstract

In this paper, we show that the Chvátal-Gomory closure of any compact convex set is a rational polytope. This resolves an open question of Schrijver [15] for irrational polytopes, and generalizes the same result for the case of rational polytopes [15], rational ellipsoids [7] and strictly convex bodies [6].
