$ V \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ is called an elementary region if - after a suitable orthogonal transformation $ x\to x'$ - it is bounded by the graphs of continuous functions:

$\displaystyle V :\;
a_j(x'_1,\ldots,x'_{j-1})\le x'_j\le
b_j(x'_1,\ldots,x'_{j-1})\,,\quad j=1,\ldots,n
\,.
$

A union of elementary regions that are disjoint except possibly at the boundary is called a regular region. A special case is a polygonal region consisting of simplices.
