Definition.

Suppose that PP is a Minkowski summand of QQ. Define the barycentric subdivision bsd⁡(Q,P)\operatorname{bsd}(Q;P) of QQ with respect to PP as follows. Start with F=QF=Q, and proceed by decreasing dimension of faces F⪯QF\preceq Q. Pull the translate ε​κ​(F)−ε​κ⁡(F)^+F^\varepsilon\kappa(F)-\varepsilon\widehat{\kappa(F)}+\widehat{F} of the corresponding face of ε​P\varepsilon P in the relative interior of FF.
