The convex hulls of the vertices of a polygon of order n

Douglas Derry

Vol. 38 (1971), No. 3, 583–596
Abstract

Let πn : A1A2Ar be a polygon of real order n in real projective n-space Ln,r n + 3, with the vertices At.,A2, , Ar. If Hn1 be a hyperplane for which AiHn1,1 i r, let H(πn) be the convex full of the set {A1,A2,,Ar} defined in the affine space LnHn1. This paper gives a classification of the combinatorial types of the sets H(πn) for a fixed πn.
