N-skeleton
text:
In mathematics, particularly in algebraic topology, the n-skeleton of a topological space X presented as a simplicial complex refers to the subspace Xn that is the union of the simplices of X of dimensions m ≤ n. In other words, given an inductive definition of a complex, the n-skeleton is obtained by stopping at the n-th step. These subspaces increase with n. The 0-skeleton is a discrete space, and the 1-skeleton a topological graph. The skeletons of a space are used in obstruction theory, to c
