We will show how the convex hulls of multidimensional random walks can be studied using the geometric properties of the polyhedral cones. In particular, we will discuss some unexpected corollaries from the conic version of the Gauss-Bonnet formula. Based on the joint work with Fedya Petrov and Julien Randon-Furling.
