Delaunay triangulation

A triangulation T of Rn+1 is a subdivision of Rn+1 into (n+1)-simplices such that: 1. any two simplices in T intersect in a common face or not at all; 2. any bounded set[?] in Rn+1 intersects only finitely many[?] simplices in T.

A Delaunay triangulation is the dual of a Voronoi tesselation.
