Before revision:  This paper presents the MINVO basis, a polynomial basis that generates the smallest n-simplex that encloses any given n^\text{th .   }-degree polynomial curve given.
After revision:  This paper presents the MINVO basis, a polynomial basis that generates the smallest n-simplex that encloses any given n^\text{th . We first prove that the polynomial basis that solves this problem (MINVO basis) also solves for the n^\text{th }-degree polynomial curve given.
