Polyhedral boxes in finite coordinate spaces #
Coordinate boxes are convex polyhedra. Consequently the closed balls for the supremum metric on a finite real coordinate space are convex polyhedra. These balls give polyhedral neighbourhoods when restricting local PL decompositions.

A box cut out by finitely many lower and upper coordinate bounds is a convex polyhedron, including boxes with empty intervals or no coordinates.
