A property of the n-simplex












1












$begingroup$


Let $Delta ^{n}$ a n-simplex and $Delta_{0}^{n-1}, Delta_{1}^{n-1}, cdots , Delta_{n}^{n-1}$ be the $(n-1)$ - faces of $Delta^{n}$.



The subsets $Delta^{n} backslash Delta_{i}^{n-1}$ are open for all $i$ ?

    No. If you remove an edge from a two-simplex (triangle), the resulting figure is neither open nor closed.

Yes, these sets are open (in $Delta^n$!) as all (sub)simplices are compact and thus absolutely closed. And $Delta^n setminus Delta_i^{n-1} = Delta^n cap (mathbb{R}^{n+1}setminus Delta_{i}^{n-1})$, which is the intersection of an open set in the ambient space with $Delta^n$.
