Diff since v1.48.3

Announcements

Contributors for this release:

• Marcelo Forets (@mforets)
• Christian Schilling (@schillic)

Breaking changes

• make p in distance a keyword argument (#2802)

Features

• Add VTK optional dependency for visualization with Paraview (#2801)
• Add normalize for Hyperplane (#2803)
• Add more point-set distance methods for HalfSpace, Hyperplane, and AbstractHyperrectangle (#2803)
• Add set-set distance method where one set is an AbstractHyperrectangle (#2803)

Enhancements

• cartesian_product of a polyhedron P and a Universe now preserves the type of the constraints of P, which is more efficient if they are sparse (#2809)
• bump IntervalArithmetic to v0.19 (#2810)
• generators matrix (genmat) of Hyperrectangle with sparse center and radius returns a sparse array (#2812)

Internal changes

• move distance to a separate file in LazySets module (#2802)
• Add @commutative macro to simplify the code (avoids symmetric definitions) (#2807) and use it in refactoring (#2808)

Closed issues:

• Add macro to create symmetric functions (#241)
• Efficient concrete Cartesian product of hyperrectangular sets and Universe (#2741)
• Inclusion check for Ball2 in polyhedron (#2805)
• genmat of sparse linear map should return a sparse array (#2811)
