A vertex is the basic unit of 3D modelling. In a sense, vertices are the atoms that make up a virtual world.

Strictly speaking, a vertex is simply a set of three co-ordinates which define its position in the virtual space. Additional information can be associated with it, such as a normal and a set of UVW co-ordinates, though in the Wavefront Object specification this information is associated by proxy to a vertex by way of the facets that the vertex takes part in.
