In mathematics, a sequence of n real numbers can be understood as a location in n-dimensional space. When n = 16, the set of all such locations is called 16-dimensional space. Often such spaces are studied as vector spaces, without any notion of distance. Sixteen-dimensional Euclidean space is sixteen-dimensional space equipped with the Euclidean metric.
More generally the term may refer to an sixteen-dimensional vector space over any field, such as an sixteen-dimensional complex vector space, which has 32 real dimensions. It may also refer to an sixteen-dimensional manifold such as an 16-sphere, or a variety of other geometric constructions.
Geometry[]
In sixteen-dimensional geometry, a 16-polytope is a 16-dimensional polytope whose boundary consists of 15-polytope facets, exactly two such facets meeting at each 14-polytope ridge.
A uniform 16-polytope is one which is vertex-transitive, and constructed from uniform facets.
