| contents | The class of convex sets that admit approximations as Minkowski sum of a compact convex set and a closed convex cone in the Hausdorff distance is introduced. These sets are called approximately Motzkin-decomposable and generalize the notion of Motzkin-decomposability, i.e. the representation of a set as the sum of a compact convex set and a closed convex cone. We characterize these sets in terms of their support functions and show that they coincide with self-bounded sets, i.e. sets contained in the sum of a compact convex set and a closed convex cone, if their recession cones are polyhedral but are more restrictive in general. In particular we prove that a set is approximately Motzkin-decomposable if and only if its support function has a closed domain relative to which it is continuous. |
