Hypersphere

Explore Hypersphere on MathWorld


A hypersphere is a generalization of a sphere to more than three dimensions.

Hypersphere is a high school-level concept that would be first encountered in a geometry course covering high-dimensional solids.

Prerequisites

Sphere: A sphere is the set of all points in three-dimensional space that are located at a fixed distance from a given point.
