By a d-polytope we shall mean a d-dimensional convex polytope. We shall denote a j-dimensional face (or j-face) of a polytope by Fj. Every d-polytope P has proper j-faces for 0 ≦jd — 1 and we shall also say that P is a d-face of itself. Observe that every face of a polytope is again a polytope. The collection of all convex polytopes shall be denoted by .
