Abstract
Abstract. Paper brings few ideas about a concept of Minkowski combinations of point sets, which can be defined as generalisation of Minkowski set operations in the Euclidean space En. Minkowski sum and product of two point sets are used for definition of Minkowski set operators as special mappings in En, which can be used for modelling of manifolds in this space. Three distinguished types of Minkowski operators are introduced based on different combinations of Minkowski sum and product of point sets.
