<div class="block">This interface represents an hyperplane of a space.

 <p>The most prominent place where hyperplane appears in space
 partitioning is as cutters. Each partitioning node in a <a href="../../../../../../org/apache/commons/math3/geometry/partitioning/BSPTree.html" title="class in org.apache.commons.math3.geometry.partitioning"><code>BSP tree</code></a> has a cut <a href="../../../../../../org/apache/commons/math3/geometry/partitioning/SubHyperplane.html" title="interface in org.apache.commons.math3.geometry.partitioning"><code>sub-hyperplane</code></a>
 which is either an hyperplane or a part of an hyperplane. In an
 n-dimensions euclidean space, an hyperplane is an (n-1)-dimensions
 hyperplane (for example a traditional plane in the 3D euclidean
 space). They can be more exotic objects in specific fields, for
 example a circle on the surface of the unit sphere.</p>

 <p>
 Note that this interface is <em>not</em> intended to be implemented
 by Apache Commons Math users, it is only intended to be implemented
 within the library itself. New methods may be added even for minor
 versions, which breaks compatibility for external implementations.
