Thanks for your reply. One more question please. In the original simplex I have 9 vertices and each vertex is connected to 8 others. In the new polytope, after cut by hyperplane, I have 5 vertices from the original simplex (that are connected to each other) plus 16 new vertices. Now how can I know if I have a one-to-one connection among all the 21 vertices in the new polytope? Is there any procedure to investigate that whether there is a connection among vertices?
