-# ## What is a cone?
+# ## Background theory
 
 # A subset $C$ of a vector space $V$ is a cone if $\forall x \in C$ and positive
 # scalars $\lambda > 0$, the product $\lambda x \in C$.
 
 # A cone $C$ is a convex cone if $\lambda x + (1 - \lambda) y \in C$, for any
 # $\lambda \in [0, 1]$, and any $x, y \in C$.
 
-# ## What is a conic program?
-
 # Conic programming problems are convex optimization problems in which a convex
 # function is minimized over the intersection of an affine subspace and a convex
 # cone. An example of a conic-form minimization problems, in the primal form is:

 # ## Second-Order Cone
 
-# The Second-Order Cone (or Lorentz Cone) of dimension $n$ is of the form:
+# The [`SecondOrderCone`](@ref) (or Lorentz Cone) of dimension $n$ is a cone of
+# the form:
 # ```math
-# Q^n = \{ (t, x) \in \mathbb{R}^n : t \ge ||x||_2 \}
+# K_{soc} = \{ (t, x) \in \mathbb{R}^n : t \ge ||x||_2 \}
 # ```
 
-# ### Example

+# It is most commonly used to represent the L2-norm of the vector $x$:

 # ## Rotated Second-Order Cone
 
 # A Second-Order Cone rotated by $\pi/4$ in the $(x_1,x_2)$ plane is called a
-# Rotated Second-Order Cone. It is of the form:
+# [`RotatedSecondOrderCone`](@ref). It is a cone of the form:

+# K_{rsoc} = \{ (t,u,x) \in \mathbb{R}^n : 2tu \ge ||x||_2^2, t,u \ge 0 \}
 # ```
 
-# ### Example
-
-# Given a set of predictors $x$, and observations $y$, find the parameter
-# $\theta$ that minimizes the sum of squares loss between $y_i$ and
-# $\theta x_i$.
+# When `u = 0.5`, it represents the sum of squares of a vector $x$:
