(geometry) A generalization of parallelogram and parallelepiped into a figure of arbitrary dimensionality..
1983 [North Holland/Elsevier], Robert S. Borden, A Course in Advanced Calculus, 1998, Dover, page 83, Suppose now that P is a k-dimensional parallelotope, 1<k<n, in Eⁿ.
1997, Daniel A. Klain, Gian-Carlo Rota, Introduction to Geometric Probability, Cambridge University Press, Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei, page 30, We develop next a theory of invariant valuations for the lattice of finite unions of orthogonal parallelotopes, having edgers parallel to a fixed frame. […] This follows from the basic fact that the intersection of two parallelotopes is a parallelotope.
It has 2ᵏ gyrovertices, k#43;1 of which are the gyropoints of S, and k 2#123;k-1#125; gyroedges, in full analogy with parallelotopes.
Use parallelotope when its meaning, tone and grammar fit the full sentence. A synonym is not always a direct replacement.
Parallelotope means (geometry) A generalization of parallelogram and parallelepiped into a figure of arbitrary dimensionality..
The closest synonym depends on the sentence and intended sense.
The opposite depends on the specific sense.
