Author: Marian Olejar, Jr. Created: Oct/22/2006 Last edit: Oct/22/2006
other names: geometric simplex; k-simplex; geometric k-simplex
topology: The k-simplex is the convex hull of k+1 affinely independent points in Euclidean n-space `RR^n`. It is usually denoted as `(:v_0,..., v_k:)`, where `v_i` (i = 1, ..., k) are points and `v_0` and `v_k` are endpoints.
