Proof.
For equation (4.100), we suppose without loss of generality that , and hence . Let . Then, the function is concave. Let such that and . Then, is a polyhedron of maximal dimension in . The restriction of to this polyhedron is constant and, by (4.88), agrees with . Therefore, by concavity,
agrees with . Thus we obtain equation (4.100). Equation (4.101) follows from the previous equation and Proposition 3.78(2). To prove equation (4.101) when we use Proposition 3.40(4). ∎
