(Centered squares) hyperpyramidal numbers

From OeisWiki
Jump to: navigation, search

The (centered squares) hyperpyramidal numbers are starting with a centered square for dimension d = 2, then do a pyramidal stacking for each extra dimension.

Although the Simplicial polytopic numbers are triangular hyperpyramidal numbers, the centered simplicial polytopic numbers are NOT (centered triangles) hyperpyramidal numbers.

Schläfli-Poincaré (convex) polytope formula

Schläfli-Poincaré generalization of the Descartes-Euler (convex) polyhedral formula.[2]

For d-dimensional convex polytopes:

where N0 is the number of 0-dimensional elements (vertices V), N1 is the number of 1-dimensional elements (edges V), N2 is the number of 2-dimensional elements (faces F) and N3 is the number of 3-dimensional elements (cells C), and so on... of the convex polytope.

N0, N1, N2,N3, ... are the number of vertices (0-dimensional), edges (1-dimensional), faces (2-dimensional), cells (3-dimensional)... respectively, where the (n-1)-dimensional "vertices" are the actual facets. The (centered squares) hyperpyramidal numbers are listed by increasing number N0 of vertices.

Where , k ≥ 1, n ≥ 0, is the d-dimensional, d ≥ 0, (centered (k+2)-gonal base) (hyper)pyramidal number where, for d ≥ 2, is the number of vertices (including the apex vertices) of the (centered polygonal base) (hyper)pyramid (the quoted emphasizes that only the polygons are centered, not the whole figure.)
