   What does degeneracy mean?

   • Degeneracy simply means that the extreme point rep- resented by the basic solution is formed by the intersection of more constraints than are needed. Therefore, the same extreme point can be expressed algebraically by sev- eral basic solutions. Once a linear program is formulated, it is solved using a computer-based solution method.

   What is a degenerate conic?

   • In geometry, a degenerate conic is a conic (a second-degree plane curve, defined by a polynomial equation of degree two) that fails to be an irreducible curve. This means that the defining equation is factorable over the complex numbers (or more generally over an algebraically closed field) as the product of two linear polynomials.
