 Replying to [comment:8 vbraun]:

 doctest is doing). I've fixed the wording and the typo.

 higher dimension there is of course no cyclic ordering of adjacent
 vertices. Apart from that it works the same.

 In fact, now I think the setup is mathematically not quite sound. Sorry
 for not noticing this straight away.
 In my book, rays and edges are of the same dimension. One cannot normally
 even talk about adjacency between rays and vertices, yet you do (lines
 974-9 of {{{geometry/polyhedron/base.py}}}).
 Although you can certainly talk about incidence between them, by
 inclusion, as usual.

 You can have adjacency graphs between faces of the same dimension (bounded
 or not, does not matter).
 It would simplify things if one knows what exactly is behind the error
 message in the description.
