	~~{{Refimprove\|date=December 2009}}~~		Greetings. Let me begin by telling you the writer's name - Phebe. North Dakota is our birth place. For many years he's been working as a receptionist. One of the issues she enjoys most is to read comics and she'll be beginning something else alongside with it.<br><br>Here is my page ... std home test ([http://www.pornextras.info/blog/28320 please click the following internet site])
	In [[geometry]], the '''barycentric subdivision''' is a standard way of dividing an arbitrary [[Convex polygon\|convex]] [[polygon]] into [[triangles]], a convex [[polyhedron]] into [[tetrahedron\|tetrahedra]], or, in general, a convex [[polytope]] into [[simplex\|simplices]] with the same [[dimension]], by connecting the [[centroid\|barycenter]]s of their [[face (geometry)\|faces]] in a specific way.

	The name is also used in [[topology]] for a similar operation on [[cell complex]]es. The result is [[homeomorphism\|topologically equivalent]] to that of the geometric operation, but the parts have arbitrary shape and size. This is an example of a [[finite subdivision rule]].

	Both operations have a number of applications in [[mathematics]] and in [[geometric modeling]], especially whenever some [[function (mathematics)\|function]] or shape needs to be approximated [[piecewise (mathematics)\|piecewise]], e.g. by ~~a [[spline (mathematics)\|spline]].~~

	~~==Barycentric subdivision of a simplex==~~
	~~[[File:Barycentric 2.svg\|thumb\|250px\|Barycentric subdivision of~~ the ~~2-simplex or triangle]]~~

	~~The barycentric subdivision (henceforth~~ ''BCS'') of an <math>n</math>-dimensional [[simplex]] <math>S</math> consists of [[factorial\|(''n'' + 1)!]] simplices. Each piece, with vertices <math>v_0,v_1,\dots,v_n</math>, can be associated with a [[permutation]] <math>p_0,p_1,\dots,p_n</math> of the vertices of <math>S</math>, in such a way that each vertex <math>v_i</math> is the [[centroid\|barycenter]] of the points <math>p_0,p_1,\dots,p_i</math>.

	~~[[File:RepeatedBarycentricSubdivision.png\|thumb\|250px\|4 stages of barycentric subdivision]]~~

	In particular, the BCS of a single point (a 0-dimensional simplex) consists of that point itself. The BCS of a line segment (1-simplex) <math>S</math> consists of two smaller segments, each connecting one endpoint (0-dimensional face) of <math>S</math> to the midpoint of <math>S</math> itself (1-dimensional face).

	The BCS of a triangle <math>S</math> divides it into six triangles; each part has one vertex <math>v_2</math> at the barycenter of <math>S</math>, another one <math>v_1</math> at the midpoint of some side, and the last one <math>v_0</math> at one of the original vertices.

	The BCS of a tetrahedron <math>S</math> divides it into 24 tetrahedra; each part has one vertex at the center of <math>S</math>, one on some face, one along some edge, and the last one at some vertex of <math>S</math>.

	~~An important feature of BCS is the fact that the maximal diameter of an <math>n-</math>dimensional simplex shrinks at least by the factor <math>\frac n{n+1}</math>.<ref~~ name~~="Munkres" />~~

	~~==Barycentric subdivision of a convex polytope==~~
	Another way of defining the BCS of a simplex <math>S</math> is to associate each part to a sequence <math>F_0,F_1,\dots,F_n</math> of [[face (geometry)\|faces]] of <math>S</math>, with increasing dimensions, such that <math>F_i</math> is a [[facet (geometry)\|facet]] of <math>F_{i+1}</math>, for <math>i</math> from 0 to <math>n-~~1</math>~~. ~~Then each vertex <math>v_i</math> of the corresponding piece~~ is ~~the barycenter of face <math>F_i</math>~~.

	~~This alternative definition can be extended to the BCS of an arbitrary <math>n</math>-dimensional convex polytope into~~ a number of <math>n</math>-simplices. Thus the BCS of a [[pentagon]] <math>P</math>, for example, has 10 triangles: each triangle is associated to three elements <math>F_0,F_1,F_2</math> of <math>P</math> — respectively, a corner of <math>P</math>, a side of <math>P</math> incident to that corner, and <math>P</math> itself.

	Similarly the BCS of a [[cube]] consists of 48 tetrahedra, each of them associated to a sequence <math>F_0,F_1,F_2,F_3</math> of nested elements — a vertex, an edge, a face, and the whole cube. Note that there are 8 choices for <math>F_0</math>, 3 for <math>F_1</math> (given <math>F_0</math>), and 2 for <math>F_2</math> (given <math>F_0,F_1</math>).

	~~==Barycentric subdivision in topology==~~
	~~Barycentric subdivision is an important tool in [[simplicial homology]] theory, where it is used as a means~~ of ~~obtaining finer simplicial complexes (containing~~ the ~~original ones, i.e. with more simplices). This in turn~~ is ~~crucial~~ to the [[simplicial approximation theorem]], which roughly states that one can approximate any continuous function between polyhedra by a (finite) [[simplicial map]], given a sufficient amount of subdivision of the respective simplicial complexes whom they realize. Ultimately, this approximation technique is a standard ingredient in the proof that simplicial [[homology groups]] are topological invariants.<ref name="Munkres">Munkres, James R.: ''Elements of Algebraic Topology''</ref><ref>Giblin, P.J.: ''Graphs, Surfaces and ~~Homology'~~'~~</ref>~~

	~~A generalization of barycentric subdivision can also~~ be defined for a [[cell complex]]. Informally, such an object can be thought of as an assemblage of one or more chunks of rubber (''cells''), each shaped like a convex polytope, which are glued to each other by their facets — possibly with much stretching and twisting.

	The topological version of BCS replaces each cell by an assemblage of rubber simplices, likewise glued together by their facets and possibly deformed. The procedure is (1) select for each cell a [[homeomorphism\|deformation map]] that converts it into a geometric convex polytope, preserving its incidence and topological connections; (2) perform the geometric BCS on this polytope; and, then (3) map the resulting subdivision back to the original cells.

	The result of barycentric subdivision, when viewed as an [[abstract simplicial complex]], is an example of a [[flag complex]]. It has one vertex for every cell of the original cell complex and one maximal-dimensional cell for every ''flag'' (a collection of cells of different dimensions, all related to each other by inclusion) of the original cell complex.

	~~==Applications==~~
	The barycentric subdivision is chiefly used to replace an arbitrarily complicated convex polytope or topological cell complex by an assemblage of pieces, all of them of bounded complexity ([[simplex\|simplices]], in fact). A typical application is [[geometric modeling\|modeling]] the shape of a [[automobile\|car]] body by a [[spline (mathematics)\|spline]] — a [[piecewise (mathematics)\|piecewise-defined]] [[polynomial]] [[function (mathematics)\|function]]. The algebra of such functions becomes much simpler and easier to program if each "piece" is a "topological triangle", i.e. is attached to exactly three other pieces. However, a human user may find it more natural to design the shape by joining patches with ~~more liberal shapes and topologies. Barycentric subdivision is a convenient way to convert that "user-friendly" model into a "computer-friendly" one.~~

	~~==Repeated barycentric subdivision==~~
	~~When approximating a mathematical function or a surface by a spline, the accuracy of the approximation is usually determined by the piece size — the bigger the pieces, the larger the error. Thus~~ it ~~is often necessary to split large pieces into smaller ones, in order to achieve a prescribed accuracy~~.

	~~In theory, BCS could be used for that purpose, since it has the property that the longest edge of any piece is smaller than the longest edge of the original polytope by a factor less than~~ <~~math~~>~~n/(n + 1)~~<~~/math~~>. ~~Therefore, by applying BCS sufficiently many times, the largest edge can be made as small as desired~~.

	~~However, in practice BCS is not well-suited for that purpose~~. ~~For one thing, each application after the first one multiplies the number of simplices by <math>~~(~~n+1)!</math>. BCS also multiplies the~~ [[degree (graph theory)\|degree]] of each original vertex by <math>n!</math>, and the degree of each edge by <math>(n-1)!</math>. Moreover, the BCS will split all simplices, even those that are already small enough. Finally, each BCS stage also makes the simplices not only smaller but "skinnier", i.e. it tends to increase their ''aspect ratio'' (the ratio between the longest and shortest edge). For all these reasons, in practice one rarely applies more than one round of BCS, and other subdivision schemes are used instead.

	~~==Relative barycentric subdivision==~~
	For simplicial complexes <math>L\subset K</math> one defines the relative barycentric subdivision <math>K^*</math> of <math>K</math> ''modulo'' <math>L</math> that consists of those simplixes with vertices <math>v_0\dots v_kB(S'_1)\dots B(S'_l)</math> associated to a sequence <math>S_0 < \cdots < S_k</math> of proper faces of <math>L</math> and barycenters <math>B(S'_i)</math> of simplexes in <math>K\setminus L</math>.

	~~Clearly, <math>L</math> remains a subcomplex of <math>K^*<~~/~~math>. Only the simplexes away from <math>L<~~/~~math> shrink~~.

	~~==Related notions==~~
	~~===False barycentric subdivision===~~
	Sometimes the term "barycentric subdivision" is improperly used for any subdivision of a polytope <math>P</math> into simplices that have one vertex at the centroid of <math>P</math>, and the opposite facet on the boundary of <math>P</math>. ~~While this property holds for the true barycentric subdivision, it also holds for other subdivisions which are not the BCS.~~

	For example, if one makes a straight cut from the barycenter of a triangle to each of its three corners, one obtains a subdivision into three triangles. Generalizing this idea, one obtains a schema for subdividing an <math>n</~~math>-dimensional simplex into <math>n+1<~~/~~math> simplices. However, this subdivision is not~~ the ~~BCS.~~

	~~===Simplicial sets===~~
	~~The barycentric division can also be defined for [[simplicial set]~~]s, in a way that is compatible (with respect to the topological realization functor) with the above division of simplices.<ref>{{Citation \| last1=Goerss \| first1=P.
