Denote the vertices of as , which coincide with the outward normal vectors because . Denote the vertices of as , so that
Let be the star of in the barycentric subdivision of . Let be the subset of points not contained in the interior of any of these stars. The affine structure on extends to , by decreeing that on the interior of we use the coordinates for the chart . As has codimension two inside , this makes into a singular affine manifold.
