The Newton complementary dual revisited

This work deals with the notion of Newton complementary duality as raised originally in the work of the second author and B. Costa. A conceptual revision of the main steps of the notion is accomplished which then leads to a vast simplification and improvement of several statements concerning rational maps and their images. A ring-homomorphism like map is introduced that allows for a close comparison between the respective graphs of a rational map and its Newton dual counterpart.
