Abstract
In this paper, we discuss centroaffine geometry of polygons in -space. For a polygon that is locally convex with respect to an origin together with a transversal vector field , we define the centroaffine dual pair similarly to [6]. We prove that vertices of correspond to flattening points for and also that constant curvature polygons are dual to planar polygons. As an application, we give a new proof of a known flattening points theorem for spatial polygons.
