simplex

{ In geometry, a simplex (plural: simplexes or simplices) is a generalization of the notion of a triangle or tetrahedron to arbitrary dimensions. The simplex is so-named because it represents the simplest possible polytope in any given dimension. For example, a 0-dimensional simplex is a point, a 1-dimensional simplex is a line segment, a 2-dimensional simplex is a triangle, a 3-dimensional simplex is a tetrahedron, and a 4-dimensional simplex is a 5-cell. Specifically, a k-simplex is a k-dimensional polytope that is the convex hull of its k + 1 vertices. More formally, suppose the k + 1 points u 0 , … , u k {\displaystyle u_{0},\dots ,u_{k}} are affinely independent, which means that the k vectors u 1 − u 0 , … , u k − u 0 {\displaystyle u_{1}-u_{0},\dots ,u_{k}-u_{0}} are linearly independent. Then, the simplex determined by them is the set of points C = { θ 0 u 0 + ⋯ + θ k u k | ∑ i = 0 k θ i = 1 and θ i ≥ 0 for i = 0 , … , k } . {\displaystyle C=\left\{\theta _{0}u_{0}+\dots +\theta _{k}u_{k}~{\Bigg |}~\sum _{i=0}^{k}\theta _{i}=1{\mbox{ and }}\theta _{i}\geq 0{\mbox{ for }}i=0,\dots ,k\right\}.} A regular simplex is a simplex that is also a regular polytope. A regular k-simplex may be constructed from a regular (k − 1)-simplex by connecting a new vertex to all original vertices by the common edge length. The standard simplex or probability simplex is the (k − 1)-dimensional simplex whose vertices are the k standard unit vectors in R k {\displaystyle \mathbf {R} ^{k}} , or in other words { x ∈ R k : x 0 + ⋯ + x k − 1 = 1 , x i ≥ 0 for i = 0 , … , k − 1 } . {\displaystyle \left\{x\in \mathbf {R} ^{k}:x_{0}+\dots +x_{k-1}=1,x_{i}\geq 0{\text{ for }}i=0,\dots ,k-1\right\}.} In topology and combinatorics, it is common to "glue together" simplices to form a simplicial complex. The geometric simplex and simplicial complex should not be confused with the abstract simplicial complex, in which a simplex is simply a finite set and the complex is a family of such sets that is closed under taking subsets. {
