Combinatorial pyramids are defined as stacks of successively reduced combinatorial maps. Such pyramids provide a rich framework which allows to encode fine properties of objects (either shapes or partitions). Combinatorial pyramids have first been defined in 2D, then extended using $n$-D generalized combinatorial maps. We motivate and present here an implicit and efficient way to encode pyramids of $n$-D combinatorial maps."
