The dual Bonahon-Schläfli formula (Q2664179)

In the paper, for a differentiable deformation of geometrically finite 3-manifold the Bonahon-Schläfli Formula gives the derivative of the volume of the convex cones in terms of the variation of the geometry of their boundaries (the classical Schläfli Formula is applicable for determining the volume of the hyperbolic polyhedra). Here the author studies the analogous problem for the dual volume and gives a self-contained proof of the dual Bonahon-Schläfli Formula (without using Bonahon's results).
